And evidently soaking. This recipe was written by someone who had read the

Oven Fries with Rosemary

One potato per person
Rosemary leaves, fresh or dried
Kosher salt
Coarse-ground pepper (optional)
Virgin olive oil spray

Preheat oven to 475. Cut potatoes into French-fry strips and soak in cold
water for 10 minutes. Dry and spray with olive oil. Add rosemary, pepper
and kosher salt and toss together in a bowl. Spray a cookie sheet with
more olive oil and spread the fries out. Roast for 15-20 minutes, turning
once to brown more evenly.
