For the absolute lover of crisp, golden, melt-in-your-mouth, french fries or even thick cut chips, any little contribution to obtaining perfection is worth the effort or perhaps in this case, worth the simplification.

Gone are the days, when in order to get the perfect fries or chips, you had to slave away at skinning the potato and then cross slicing them in order to ensure uniform thickness. With one of these fry cutters, you not only know the contents of your fries (potatoes only!) but you also obtain the perfect uniform cut for each of them.

Things to Consider When Choosing the Right Fry Cutter for You

How would I like my fries? Thick cut or french-fry thin is what you really need to ask yourself. There are cutters with fixed blades, either for thick cut or thin cut. Other manufacturers offer both types of cutters so you can swap them round. There are even those that offer up to 4 different blades with one of them for cutting wedges.

Next you might need to consider, whether or not you need it to be mountable or with suction feet. these are simply options to think about when choosing a fry cutter. If your worktop is smooth and glossy, the suction feet might help. However, if your worktop is a rough surface then you may want to consider other options. Where cutters come without suction feet, they offer mounting points at the bottom of the feet if you decide to mount it permanently to your kitchen counter or on a board.

Another point to consider is whether your arm strength is based on a pull-across action or do you work better in a slight push-down action. Both types of cutters are available and there are pros and cons to each based on personal preference.
