Recipe Connection: Lazy French Fries or Potato Chips in Beef Tallow or Coconut Oil
November 13th, 2009 · 15 Comments · Do It Yourself, Fat Full Fall, recipes
I’ve got a touch of obsessive-compulsive disorder at times. For example: as a child, every week during the 45-minute drive on the way back from dance class , I would consume a small order of McDonald’s French fries. (That’s not the OCD yet.)
