<\/p>\n

Roast potatoes are a staple in every British chef\u2019s repertoire, and Gordon Ramsay knows a thing or two about achieving that perfect blend of crunch and fluffiness.<\/p>\n

While many recipes call for the addition of flour, baking soda or salt for extra crispy skin, Gordon uses something a little different.<\/p>\n

His perfect roasties are made with semolina – also known as wheat middlings.<\/p>\n

The ingredient is a coarse flour consisting mostly of the nutritious wheat grain germ, a natural by-product of white flour that’s sifted out in milling.<\/p>\n

Of course, good technique is also essential, and the chef claimed that it comes down to three steps: \u201cShaking up the edges, coating in semolina and getting the fat really hot first all help ensure crispy, golden outsides while the middles remain fluffy.\u201d<\/p>\n
