Ingredients:
Baked Potato Wedges
- 5 lbs Idaho® Russet Potatoes, 60 ct
Salt and Pepper Mix
- Nordstrom’s signature “Salt & Pepper Crush” spice blend featuring 5 types of peppercorns and Himalayan pink salt.
Fried Rosemary and Sage Mix
- 20 grams fresh rosemary, leaves only
- 20 grams fresh sage, leaves only
Garnish
- 40 grams rosemary and sage mix (recipe above)
- 8 Tablespoons grated parmesan cheese
- 1 Tablespoon salt and pepper mix (recipe above)
Directions:
Baked Potato Wedges
- Rinse and scrub potatoes with water and place on a sheet tray.
- Bake at 350°F for 1 to 1½ hours or until fork tender.
- Remove potatoes from oven and cool to 40°F, ideally refrigerated overnight.
Fried Rosemary and Sage Mix
- Place rosemary and sage leaves into a 350°F fryer.
- Fry until the leaves have stopped bubbling and transfer to a paper lined sheet tray.
- Once cooled and drained of excess oil, chop herbs and transfer to a container lined with a paper towel.
Crispy Parmesan Potatoes and Assembly
- Cut the cold potatoes into 1/6th wedges lengthwise.
- Fry potatoes in a 350°F fryer (don't over pack the fry basket) until light golden brown, about 4 minutes.
- Transfer the wedges onto a rack lined sheet tray and cool.
- Once the potatoes have cooled to the touch, transfer them to a flat surface. Using gloved hands, press the wedges down on the thickest part of the potato until the entire wedge is about 1/2" thick and some of the interior potato has been exposed.
- Fry 7 ounces (by weight) of the Baked Idaho® Russet Potato Wedges in a 350°F fryer until golden brown and crispy, about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Transfer to a mixing bowl and season with ¼ teaspoon of salt & pepper mix, 2 teaspoons of Fried Rosemary and Sage mix, and 1 Tablespoon of Grated Parmesan Cheese.
- Toss to evenly coat the potatoes, then stack on a warm plate at 12 o'clock. Pour any residual seasoning from the mixing bowl and sprinkle on top of the potatoes.
