When you think about Belgian delicacies, what comes to mind? Famous, decadent chocolate? Or maybe strawberries and cream covered waffles? Perhaps savory sausage?<\/p>\n

How about their fries? Fried potatoes have deep roots in the Belgian culture. Call them “French fries” here and you’ll get strange looks from the locals. Partly because the Belgians believe that they are the originators of “fries”. Take one bite of these hand-cut, golden slices of heaven and your taste buds will start to understand why. The delicious flavor comes from the way the Belgians prepare the potatoes. They’re fried twice: first for tenderizing, then again for crisping before serving \u2013 a process that yields exceptionally scrumptious results. Sprinkle with a bit of salt, serve in a metal cone and there you have it \u2013 elegant Belgian fries that are sure to please any palate. After your first taste, you’ll understand why Belgians are proud to call these crispy sensations their own.<\/p>\n

We can’t wait for you to book your cruise with AmaWaterways so you can try the real thing in Belgium. But, just in case you can’t wait, here is a recipe you can try at home.<\/p>\n
