What should be observed while cooking fries for perfect results?

The key to cooking fries perfectly lies in observing both color and texture during the cooking process. When fries are cooked at the right temperature and for the right amount of time, they will develop a golden-brown color that indicates they are crispy on the exterior while remaining fluffy on the inside. The texture is just as important; fries should feel light and crispy when finished. Relying solely on any single factor, such as time or temperature, can lead to subpar results.

Color is an important visual cue that signals when fries have reached optimal cooking, while texture tells you about the internal quality of the fry. Combining these two observations ensures that the fries have been cooked thoroughly and have not been overcooked or undercooked. Therefore, focusing on both color and texture helps achieve the perfect fry that customers expect.
