• 2 tablespoons Kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon Baking soda

What it concludes

• Boiling potatoes in water with baking soda pre-cooks the interior and creates a thin, dehydrated exterior that results in superior crunch when roasted.

• Throwing the potatoes into a 450 degree oven and flipping them every 20 minutes until crisp yields the best roasted potatoes.
