How to Store Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges

Tips to Make Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges
- For extra crispiness, soak the potato wedges in cold water for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps to remove excess starch.
- Experiment with different seasonings like Italian herbs or cayenne pepper for added spice.
- Make sure not to overcrowd the baking sheet to allow even cooking and crispiness.
Variation
You can try using sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes for a different flavor. The sweetness pairs nicely with the savory garlic and Parmesan.
