CRINKLE CUT FRIES
To make crinkle cut french fries simply take your potato and secure it to the safety food holder. Set the slicer to the ridge or wavy cut. Then just slide the potato along the device and past the blade. Be sure to apply even pressure in order to achieve the ideal thickness of slice. You will slice the whole potato into wavy slices.

WAFFLE FRIES
Making waffle fries is even easier. Set the slicer for the waffle cut and secure your potato in the food holder. Make a single pass along the slicer to make the first cut. You will notice ridges on the end of your potato. After the first pass, just make a quarter turn and slice it again. Your first waffle fry is now cut. Simply rotate back and forth as you cut to slice multiple waffle fries in just seconds. They will be perfectly cut and of a uniform thickness.

WAVY FRIES
This is the easiest one to do. Just set the slicer to wavy cut, secure your potato and slice away. You will get perfect, professional looking slices quickly and easily.

Once cut you are ready to season and cook your fries to your liking. They can be baked or fried, and seasoned with any number of spices. Once you discover how easy it is, and how great the fries taste, it will be hard to go back to store bought versions again

    I love my Henckels. I find the handle weighting and range of blade options is just perfect for the way I cook. I am hard on knives, I don?t take care of them as well as I should, but mine have held up for 20 years and will probably last a lifetime.
