JoJo Potato Wedges
Description
This recipe uses medium russet potatoes cut into quarters, which are soaked in water to remove excess starch. The wedges are coated first in a seasoned flour blend with black pepper, salt, and garlic salt, then dipped into buttermilk. After coating again in the seasoned flour, the wedges rest briefly on a wire rack to help the batter adhere properly.
The twice-coated wedges are deep fried at 350°F until golden brown and floating, indicating doneness. This double-dip seasoning and buttermilk soak create a crispy, flavorful crust contrasting with the soft potato flesh inside.
JoJo Potato Wedges are ideal as a side dish, snack, or accompaniment to burgers and sandwiches. Their crispy edges and well-seasoned coating set them apart from plain fries.
