National Julienne Fries Day is celebrated annually on August 12th. This fun food holiday honors the delicious and crispy julienne-cut version of French fries. Julienne fries are thinly sliced potatoes that are cut into matchstick-like strips before being deep-fried or baked to perfection.

What Are Julienne Fries?
Julienne fries differ from traditional French fries due to their shape and size. The term "julienne" refers to a culinary knife cut in which food is sliced into thin, uniform strips. In the case of fries, this results in a crispier texture and a more delicate bite.

How to Celebrate
There are many ways to enjoy National Julienne Fries Day:
- Visit your favorite restaurant or diner that serves julienne fries.
- Make your own julienne fries at home using fresh potatoes and a julienne slicer or sharp knife.
- Try different seasonings or dipping sauces to enhance the flavor.
- Share your creations or favorite fry spots on social media using the hashtag #JulienneFriesDay.

Fun Facts
- Julienne fries are sometimes referred to as "shoestring fries" due to their thin appearance.
- The julienne cut is also used for vegetables like carrots and zucchini in salads and stir-fries.
- French fries, including julienne-style, are one of the most popular side dishes in the world.

Conclusion
