Notes About The Parmesan and Garlic Potato Wedges

  • Use a Russet style baking potato – this will give you best results for a crisper potato.
  • I used fresh grated parmesan cheese – but you could use the stuff that comes in a bag.
  • These can be prepared in advance – just make sure you keep the potatoes in water until roasting time to prevent browning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should you soak potatoes in water before making potato wedges?

it’s not 100% necessary. However, if you are looking for a really crispy potato wedge, I do recommend you soak your potatoes first. Soaking the potatoes will remove starch from the potato and make them crisper.

What are the best potatoes to use for potato wedges?

Large baking potatoes are the best potatoes because they crisp up well and contain less starch.
