Hot take: I think frozen fries beat fresh potatoes in the air fryer

Everyone says to cut your own russets, but after testing both side by side, the frozen bag from the store came out way crispier every time. I think the pre-blanching they do is the key. Has anyone else had this happen?

Frozen fries win every time. That factory taste is the crisp tax.

Totally get what @matthew_walker means about that crisp. Air frying them at home fixed the weird taste for me.

But that pre-blanching just makes them taste like the factory.
