How To Make Crispy Baked Potato Wedges
Placing the cut potatoes in water before baking them draws out some of the starch & prevents discoloration. Be certain to pat them dry well so the seasonings adhere. The parchment paper over the pan will allow the potatoes to release easily from the pan. Do not omit this step.
