Recipe: Truffle French Fries with Sea Salt

I was feeling very nostalgic the other day. I was sitting on my couch and looking at old pictures and was remembering the days of being a carefree child, then very two delectable words came to mind, French fries. French fries stir up all sorts of memories and senses. I know thats an odd thing to think about but french fries kept creeping into my mind. I guess it reminds me of the smells of ball games, county fairs, and the days of going to McDonalds to buy a Happy meal.
French fries are comforting, they are comfort foods. The way they smell and the taste of popping a warm fresh french fry in your mouth makes even the oldest young at heart.
Now you can probably guess what I did next...yep..I proceeded to make french fries but wanted to make something a little different, a little grown up I guess you can say. So I tried a new french fry recipe that I concocted with my Truffle oil, needless to say my husband and boy gobbled these up fast!
