Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. (5 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

Place potato wedges in a bowl; sprinkle thyme, cayenne, salt, and black pepper over the top. Drizzle melted duck fat over potatoes and toss to coat evenly. (5 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Transfer potatoes, skin-side down, to the prepared baking sheet. Season wedges again with salt. (2 minutes)

04

Step
40 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Turn potatoes onto their sides and bake for 10 minutes. (50 minutes)

05

Step
10 mins

Flip over and cook on the other side until golden brown, about 10 minutes more. (10 minutes)

For extra crispiness, soak the potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking to remove excess starch.
Feel free to experiment with other herbs and spices, such as rosemary, garlic powder, or smoked paprika, to customize the flavor profile.
Ensure the duck fat is fully melted before drizzling over the potatoes for even coating.
Monitor the potatoes closely during the final baking stages to prevent burning, as oven temperatures may vary.
