Steps:
- Instructions 1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. 2. Pat the potatoes dry and cut them lengthwise into 1⁄2-inch-thick slices. Turn each side flat and slice again lengthwise into even 1⁄2-inch-thick fries. Place the potatoes in a mixing bowl and add the olive oil, Essence, and 1⁄4 teaspoon of the salt. Toss well to combine. Then transfer the fries to a large baking sheet and arrange them in one even layer so that they are not touching. Roast, scraping the potatoes from the baking sheet with a metal spatula and turning them over halfway through, until golden brown and crispy, 30 minutes. 3. While the potatoes are cooking, combine the cheese, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and the remaining 1⁄2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl and stir to blend. 4. When the potatoes are crisp and brown, remove them from the oven and transfer to a serving platter. Sprinkle the potatoes with the Paprika-Parmesan Salt, and serve hot. Yield: 4 to 6 servings

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350F.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for oven-baked fries, as they have a high starch content that makes them crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
- Cut the potatoes evenly: This will ensure that they cook evenly.
- Soak the potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes: This will help to remove the starch from the potatoes, which will make them crispier.
- Dry the potatoes thoroughly before tossing them with oil: This will help to prevent the fries from sticking together.
- Use a high-quality oil: Olive oil or avocado oil are good choices.
- Toss the potatoes with the oil and seasonings until they are evenly coated.
- Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet: Do not overcrowd the pan, or the fries will not cook evenly.
- Bake the fries at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy exterior.
- Flip the fries halfway through cooking: This will ensure that they cook evenly.
- Serve the fries immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
