True. But it's the proportions of each that matter. And the type of salt and vineger.

  • Vinegar goes first because it gives the salt a sticking surface. Apply it when the fries are fresh so that it soaks in a bit better.

  • heavy on the salt before the vinegar has fully soaked in. Then toss the fries and add a little bit when serving.

  • Sea salt and Malt vinegar are the best, but any old salt and vinegar will do in a pinch.
