When I first saw this challenge I immediately thought of a great restaurant in Baltimore, MD called Salt Tavern. They serve this sinfully delicious appetizer - duck fat french fries with three aiolis for dipping: chipotle, malt vinegar, and black truffle. I immediately knew I would have to try my hand at reproducing this dish at home. <br /> <br />The duck fat fries recipe comes from a conglomeration of sources online and basically uses the two part cooking technique that produces the most crisp french fries, whether or not you are using duck fat. If you can't find duck fat locally, you can purchase it online at D'artagnan. <br /> <br />The aioli recipe uses a modified base provided in Food52's aioli primer and adds the three flavors that Salt Tavern serves. This method works really well because you can create one basic aioli and add a few ingredients to make three separate dipping sauces! - meganvt01
