5 Kesilapan Teratas Pengimport Apabila Menyumber Kentang Goreng Crinkle Cut

Top 5 Mistakes Importers Make When Sourcing Crinkle Cut Fries Crinkle cut fries, golden waves of cheerfulness, are not just a snack; these are an experience. The ridges hold more ketchup, the crunch is longer and aesthetical, they are wonderful on any plate. But ask any importer, and they will say that it is no mere chance that you can achieve that perfect crinkle every time, but rather it is about good sourcing.  This is the list of the top 5 mistakes that importers can commit in sourcing crinkle cut fries and what you can do to ensure that the fries remain perfect after coming out of the factory to the fryer. 
  • Cut Consistency (Because shape does matter) Ignored
Have you ever served out the fries that appear beautiful in one batch and ugly in the other? That's a red flag. Crinkle cut french fries are so appealing because of their consistency; it is important that the wavy ridges are always cut evenly in order to fry the potatoes evenly. In instances where importers fail to check this during the sampling, they usually receive fries that are crisp on one side and soft on the other side. (No, no, not the best first impression to your customers) Always insist on production-size samples from your crinkle-cut fries manufacturer, not merely laboratory-size samples. You should get what you get in bulk and not what you approve.
  • Ignoring the Freezing Technology
This is one of the questions: Have you ever wondered how your fries were frozen? That is what determines whether they will come together crunchy or lumpy together. Most importers are influenced by the cheap prices and do not bother to check the freezing procedures. Unless your supplier is using IQF (Individual Quick Freezing), you are likely to find your fries losing texture and getting freezer-burnt. Always keep in mind that great fries freeze quickly. The slower the freeze, the soggier the result. (And no one wants sad fries!) Always inquire of your supplier about the freezing temperature, storing lower than -18degC and vacuum-sealed packaging of the food; these little details count.
  • Concentrating (Only) on Price (The biggest trap)
Honestly, everybody loves a bargain. However, the situation is different in the case of fries, where cheap becomes expensive in the long run. Other importers will select the lowest price and become stuck with fries that absorb too much oil or turn brown too quickly, or fries that are not flavorful. (Suppose you should tell that to one of your QSR clients who relies on consistency.) Good crinkle fries require good, solid potato content, oil blanching accuracy, and freezing skills - and that costs. A reputed exporter of crinkle cut fries may not necessarily be the lowest-priced supplier, yet they will always provide crunchy fries.
  • Bypassing Transparency and Process Checks
Are you aware of the source of potatoes? Or how do they keep themselves hygienic in production? When you say not exactly, then this is a huge sourcing risk on your part. Many importers jump into a partnership without visiting the factory or obtaining certifications or even video audits, and the result? Each time, you get batches which vary in texture, taste, or shelf life. Always have your crinkle cut fries manufacturer provide clear traceability of raw potatoes, HACCP or ISO certification and a specified quality approval procedure. (Unless they are transparent, then that is a red flag.)
  • Ignoring Packaging and Shelf Life Tests
Think packaging is just a box? Think again. Fries have their first line of defense against moisture and temperature change, as well as against time. Most importers do not pay attention to packaging materials or the presence of nitrogen, and due to this, the fries lack crispiness or clump in transit. Never accept less than multilayer barrier packaging, nitrogen flush and no real-time shelf life tests - not only basic cold storage tests. Good packaging means the package will have less wastage, more sales, and fries that will fry just like day one. Last-Minute Crunch: Quality Pays. Here is the question: do your fries give you that famous crisp-outside, fluffy-inside bite whenever you put them in the fryer? That is what makes us a trusted crinkle cut fries exporter - somebody who does not simply sell fries but makes them work on your menu. The next time you go to source the crinkle fries, avoid the shortcuts. Select the brand which does not freeze quantity but quality.

We ensure that our fries are crisp, golden, and happy, with quality potatoes, perfect cuts and advanced freezing till they reach your customer.
