Tips & Tricks for the Best Potato Wedges

✔ Use Starchy Potatoes – If you’re in Germany use Vorwiegend Festkochend Kartoffeln. In US/UK use Russet or Yukon Gold. These variety of potatoes work best for crispy wedges.

✔ Pat Dry Before Cooking – Removing excess moisture helps achieve a crispy texture.

✔ Toss into Some Olive Oil– This helps the seasoning stick to the potatoes while also making them crisp up nicely.

✔ Don’t Overcrowd the Air Fryer – Give the wedges space to crisp up evenly.

✔ Shake or Flip Halfway – This ensures they cook evenly on all sides.
