Fun fact: I worked at New York Fries in Square One from 1997 to 2004 so I may know and thing or three about fries…
The difference maker here is the three cold water rinses and hot water bath to extract the starch, giving you fries that are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

Thoroughly wash and clean the potatoes
Peel if you’re not a fan of the skins
