Chef's Notes
Do not rush the rinsing phase! Getting rid of every speck of surface starch is the non-negotiable secret to achieving that glass-like shatter in your bite.
Pro Tip
Keep your oil temperature stable at medium heat. If the oil is too hot, the exterior burns before the moisture deep inside can escape!
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Dropping wet, un-dried potato shreds straight into screaming hot oil, turning your peaceful kitchen into a violent, sputtering volcano of bubbling terror.

The Culinary Science
Coating the dried potato shreds in corn flour creates a thin starch barrier that gelatinizes in hot oil, locking out grease and trapping crispness.
