It's countable... you can tell because it's plural ("french fry" is singular) and because you can count french fries (you can have three french fries). Something uncountable would be "gravel", because you can have a little gravel, no gravel, or a lot of gravel, but you can't have three gravels. (Technical details: Sure, you can count the individual stones, but then you would say "I have three stones of gravel here" or "I have three pebbles", not "I have three gravels". Physically, you can count gravel, but grammatically, you can't, because you can't say "three gravels".)

The real name in French is FRITES.

Belgians based on a family manuscript of 1680 say that they already cut up potatoes and fried them. In France the fries (pommes frites or commonly Frites) were first seen on the bridges of Paris in 1789 in full French Revolution and became popular.

In 1830, Paris (france) and Brussels (belgium) fond of Frites (Fries). Even if Thomas Jefferson mentioned already "fried potatoes in the French manner" following his stay in France from 1784 to 1789, the fries have been popularized in America after the return of soldiers from the First World War of France and Belgium (where French is the official language), hence the name "French Fries".

It comes from the "steak-frites" (beef steak and fried) lunch meal, which is, or rather was, one of the most frequent in restaurants for a quick lunch.

It should probably have been "Belgian Fries", since fries were even more widespread in Belgium than in France, with the "moules-frites" dish (mussels and fries), but American tourists are less familiar with Belgium.

Can you refreeze frozen french fries?

Cut the potatoes into the desired shape (the standard width and shape is called a French cut, and thus cutting them into these shapes is called frenching), obviously after washing and peeling them, add some salt to it (you can also add pepper and other spices according to your taste) and mix it nicely. Drain them if there is any water. Now dry the potatoes, preferably under a fan, for about 15-20 minutes as you don't want water to freeze with the potatoes. Now put them in a freezer for some time (maximum 8-10 days).

Fry the french fries in oil when you want to consume it, first at a low temperature to completely thaw and cook the middle, then at higher temperature to crisp the outside. Enjoy even crunchier lip smacking french fries. Have fun cooking!

Enjoy, and please don't burn the house. (I'm assuming that you are still learning how to cook, if you don't know how to reheat a potato).
