If you toss them all into a bag right after blanching, they will stick together and form a big hash brown. The same goes for almost anything you can make in large quantities and freeze in a bag(Croquettes, spring rolls, tostones, etc).
Ahh, thanks for the reminder! Maybe I woulda figured it out, but that's exactly how I freeze my raspberries!
Peanut & sesami oil are more expensive, but I mostly use canola for that reason. The best fish fries around here use p-nut oil ..and we have a LOT of Friday fish fries around!
What's a good temp to deep fry? My deep fryer only goes to 350*f.
