It should be pretty clear that at least 10% of them have caramelization on them I can only be achieved through heat. The other 90% are just warm
So you cooked them 10% of the way?
100% of the way but only 10% of the sides showed the results.
They are under.
I had to make an executive decision. My wife has been battling kidney stones this week and she loves soggy fries. I tend to cook them at 425 and I would have loved to have kept them in for another 7 minutes until they were completely blistered. But domestic tranquility required a less than ideal solution.
She also likes him with no seasoning. So I had to put a bare minimum of salt on them instead of my usual choice of three different seasonings with a lot more salt.
To each their own, but my god this is utterly incomprehensible to me. Might as well just eat a wet sponge.
