By leaving the peel on your potatoes, you can skip the peeling step and achieve the crispiest home fries, unlocking the potential of the skin.
When preparing home fries, whether by baking or frying, the potato skin transforms into a remarkably crunchy coating that enhances the overall texture and flavor.
Parboiling potatoes before frying or roasting can enhance crispiness by partially cooking them and removing excess starches, contributing to a perfectly crunchy exterior.
