For extra crispiness, soak the potato wedges in cold water for 30 minutes before coating them in the spice mixture. This helps remove excess starch. Experiment with different types of hot sauce to customize the level of heat. A smoky chipotle hot sauce would complement the smoked paprika beautifully. If you don't have dried oregano, you can use Italian seasoning or fresh oregano (increase the amount to 1 tablespoon if using fresh). To prevent sticking, you can line the baking sheet with parchment paper. However, placing the wedges directly on a hot baking sheet promotes maximum crispness.
