Method

Frites

01
Peel potatoes, slice then cut slices into 1/4-inch matchsticks. While prepping, keep the cut fries in a cool water bath to prevent them from browning. (Pro Tip: Before frying, drain thoroughly & spread out on a kitchen towel lined tray to dry a bit further.) (Note: Baking? Drizzle w/oil & sprinkle w/pepper, bake 45 mins at 450F. Finish w/salt & parsley.)

Mussels

01
Thoroughly scrub mussels under running water in the sink with a brush; carefully removing beards (the stringy elastic fibers hanging off the underside) with your thumb & forefinger to pinch & pull towards the hinge of the shell; then rinse mussels off in an ice water bath. (Pro Tip: If pathogens or germs are present, mussel will smell overwhelmingly bad; discard.)
