Ingredients

Scale

Basic French Fry Seasoning Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano or thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked salt or chili powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Measure Your Spices: Start by gathering your spices and herbs in a small bowl—accurate measurements help maintain consistency and taste.
  2. Combine Thoroughly: Mix all ingredients well using a spoon or whisk to ensure even distribution of flavors throughout the seasoning mix.
  3. Store in an Airtight Container: Transfer your French Fry Seasoning to a jar or container with a tight lid to keep it fresh and ready whenever the craving hits.
  4. Season Your Fries: After cooking your fries (whether fried, baked, or air-fried), immediately toss them in the seasoning while they’re hot so the flavors cling beautifully.

Notes

  • Use fresh spices rather than old, stale ones for the most vibrant flavor.
  • Remember you can always add more salt later, but you can’t take it away, so balance salt carefully.
  • Try toasting the dried herbs lightly before mixing to deepen their fragrance.
  • Start with smaller amounts of spicy ingredients like cayenne and adjust upwards as you get familiar.
  • Grind or pulverize any coarse spices so the seasoning sticks evenly to the fries.
