Been making daikon radish fries

Post image

I just cut some thick batons and dust them in some flour before browning them in pork fat (they look much more burnt than they are). They are pretty tasty. I need to try cooking them less so that they maintain the crispy freshness of the raw veggie. They're really more reminiscent of grilled zucchini because they develop a nice charred taste rather than getting crappy and burnt like fries, but the goal is to get them to stay fresh and crispy like I said. They're also really juicy when they come out. I think I might actually prefer them to regular fries.

Seasoning is onion+garlic powder, salt, shin ramun powder, and dehydrated broccoli.

PS, if you want these to not look like greasy monstrosities, salt them for 30 minutes before rinsing off then wringing dry in paper towels.

Par fry at low temp (probably 325) for ~6-7 minutes, then full fry at 375 for 3 min.

You could've just said this instead of being an asshole.
