Veggies: Italian Fries/

Notes: 

The secret to awesome oven fries is presoaking them in salted water, which makes the potatoes release a bunch of their moisture before cooking. This ensures they will crisp up without having to risk burning them.

Ingredients: 

6 or 7 Idaho potatoes, peeled and sliced into 1/3-inch-thick French fry-style strips, soaked in cold water
1/4 C extra-virgin olive oil
1 T dried Italian herbs or some combo of dried oregano, thyme, marjoram, and basil
2 C freshly grated Romano cheese
1/4 C parsley leaves, finely chopped
1/2 stick salted butter, cut into 6 cubes
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper

Cook's Note

Potato Prep: For a French-fry cut, peel the potatoes and slice lengthwise into 1/3-inch-thick slices. Stack the slices on top of one another, a few at a time, and slice lengthwise into 1/3-inch-thick strips. Peeled and sliced potatoes can turn brown pretty quickly. To avoid this, try floating the peeled, cut pieces in cold, salted water. When you're ready to cook, drain them and pat dry.
