Fancy Hank's version is the restaurant recipe — the one that goes on their fries — and it settles the argument about whether the good stuff at the chipper can be bought in a shaker. It can. Doesn't matter whether you call it a potato cake, a scallop or a fritter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe flavour\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSalt and yeast extract lead together, which is the whole secret — that deep, savoury, moreish hit that plain salt can't touch. Spice and vegetable powder build a mellow, faintly sweet body behind it, and rice flour keeps everything loose and free-running. It finishes savoury and lingering, and it's the reason the chip bowl empties faster.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to cook with it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHit hot chips the second they leave the oil, while the surface is still wet enough to grab it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRub it under the skin of a whole chicken before roasting, not just over the top.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eToss halved roast potatoes through it in the tray for the last ten minutes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShake it over hot buttered popcorn and accept that the night is now about popcorn.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeason charred broccoli with it — the umami turns a side dish into the thing people talk about.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eIn the shaker\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePale sandy yellow, fine and free-running.
