What to Eat With French Fries
French fries are a very forgiving food. You can use them as finger foods with virtually anything. On that note, I decided to help you foodies out that A) are out of ketchup B) hate ketchup or C) are sick of ketchup and want to try something new. On that note, here are some great ideas to try pairing with french fries.
Ketchup's nemesis, mustard, is great with french fries. Don't just settle for plain old yellow mustard. Get creative and try hot mustards, brown mustards, and other specialty mustards. There are a surprising number of varieties.French fries and salsa are mmm good. I could eat salsa on about anything, so it may not be your cup of tea. But if you like Mexican or spicy food, try french fries and salsa. Plus, besides the flavor, salsa is actually good for you. Tomatoes, garlic, peppers, and no fat- how cool is that?Ranch dressing is better with french fries than on a salad. I kid you not. I really have to physically stop myself from eating too many french fries when I have ranch dressing to go with them.Horseradish sauce is a nice surprise that I happened on by accident. We were at an Arby's and I was really tired and hungry. We had been on the road all day and were almost at the end of our journey. But we couldn't wait any longer and had to stop to eat. When I went to get ketchup at the self-serve dispensers, of course it was out. There was a huge line. I certainly didn't want to fight my way through that. And yeah, they were also out of virtually everything else, even Arby's sauce. So I got desperate and squirted the horseradish into those ridiculously tiny little cups. And that's when I discovered the simple beauty of french fries dipped in horseradish sauce.By the way, every single one of these ideas works with potato chips, too. Tortilla chips tastes pretty good with most of them as well.
