Recipe by Chef John

Ingredients
1 large russet potato, cut into evenly sized strips
2 cups vegetable oil for frying, or as needed
salt to taste 

Directions
1. Soak potato strips in a large bowl of water for about 30 minutes. Pat with paper towels until thoroughly dry.
2.Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Gently add potatoes to the hot oil and fry for about 5 minutes, stirring and flipping the potatoes occasionally. Use a slotted spoon to transfer potatoes to a paper towel-lined plate. Let cool completely.
3. Heat oil again, but this time to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Add potatoes and fry a second time until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
4. Remove from the deep-fryer and blot with a paper towel. Sprinkle with salt to serve.
