Papa got a new potato slicer a while ago and had to try it out.
It has 4 blades; tiny, med, large and wedges. It works great but it really does need a anchor board to hold it still.. Half his energy went into holding it still while the other half went into pushing the potato through the knifes. It makes great fries!
He deep fries them in lard on the front porch (what a nice change from inside on the stove!!) on our outdoor burner. They are the best fries EVER!!! I think once we get it set up so it's easier to use I'm really going to like the wedge knifes for baking wedges... YUM!!!
