My Neighbors Are Still Talking About This Scrumptious Side Dish I Served At Our Party
I love potatoes with all my heart. I think I got it from my late father – my parents had a small farm where we grew all our own vegetables, including a huge amount of potatoes that we then stored for the rest of the year. Dad enjoyed all kinds of potato dishes. He was a little old-fashioned when it comes to taste, I think! Whenever Mom made a “modern” pasta dish, she knew Dad wouldn’t be a fan and made him a dish with potatoes, too. That’s what you call love…
So, we obviously had plenty of potato meals when I was a kid and at some point I did get a little tired of them. When I moved in with my husband there was a period of time when I tried to avoid potatoes like crazy. I thought I’d had enough of them for the rest of my life.
But when I finally realized how many great recipes there are for all kinds of potato dishes we never had back home, it opened up a whole new world for me. I’ve been cooking potatoes several times a week ever since, and I don’t think I can ever get bored of them again!

Quick Tip: Serve as a side dish for almost any meal, or as a snack with your favorite dip.
Do you place the wedges on the baking rack? Or baking sheet?
Not understanding baking rack onto baking sheet?
Sounds like you put them on a rack and then the rack in a sheet, the heat can travel around the potatoes and not drip stuff in your oven
baking rack on cookie sheet lets the hot air go all the way around, therefore Crisping the fries all the way around without flipping.
Looks delicious
I do the exact same thing….. let the cut potatoes sit in extremely cold water first, then put them on the sprayed with olive oil baking sheet. Then I spray them with olive oil and sprinkle a bit of rosemary crumbles and seasoning salt. Bake at 400 13 to 15 minutes. Toss halfway through.
I’m Like Jeanette….what has a baking rack got to do with it? I would put the potatoes on the foil on the baking sheet…or am I crazy?
Me too! That part about the baking rack was confusing!
Instructions are perfectly clear to me!!! Reread……it’s all there what to do in black and white!!!!
It is not clear. You can reread all you want, but it is not clear, nor does it sound right.
I’m sorry Pat but it is very clear and it does sound right.Me being a retired school teacher there is nothing wrong with the way this recipe reads.
To me it is as clear as freshly cleaned glass.
I love using baking racks/cooling racks! They’re great for placing on top of a cookie sheet for drainage and crisping (or to keep items from scorching) plus, they be placed on the counter to cool cooked items. It’s a great multipurpose item for the kitchen. Everyone should have one in their kitchen, in my opinion! A simple item that’s oh so handy! 🙂
This in itself is a great explanation of recipe,if you don’t know or use racks to use on sheets or cooling racks,but makes perfect sense.
I do both… Depends on what I’m cooking usually ….or how lazy I am ? I use the cooling rack on top to keep things dripping … I find both sides of things crisp up without necessarily having to turn …
Yea a rack keeps the heat traveling around the pot keeps it up off the baking sheet you can also bread them with all those seasonings an deep fry them
