One of the things I love about my neighborhood are all the parks. Of course, everyone has heard of Central Park, but Riverside Park is beautiful, too, and it's not nearly as crowded.
Riverside Park runs parallel to the Hudson River, hence the name. It's full of gorgeous flowering trees at this time of year, and there are a couple cafes with outdoor seating where it's fun to hang out on warm, sunny days.
My husband and I stopped by one of the cafes recently, and we ordered some wine and fries to snack on. The fries were sooo good.
Well, it turns out the magic ingredient was Old Bay Seasoning!
About the Recipe
I've always associated Old Bay Seasoning with seafood, but it's delicious on all kinds of foods.
What exactly is Old Bay?
It's a mixture of spices, including celery salt, red pepper, black pepper, some mystery ingredients, and paprika, and it's perfect for seasoning lots of foods.
Since that afternoon, I've been sprinkling Old Bay on pretty much everything. And of course, I had to recreate the recipe for those Old Bay Potatoes.
How to Make Old Bay Roasted Potato Wedges
These crispy, slightly spicy Old Bay Potato Wedges are amazing and so easy to make.
I love roasted potatoes, and this recipe is my go to. You'll simply combine potato wedges with olive oil, Old Bay, and salt, then bake them until they're nice and brown.
And then there's a Old Bay Dipping sauce ... yum!
This magical sauce only has three ingredients, including more of that magical Old Bay. Yet it makes these tasty roasted potatoes even better!

MUST HAVE some of those fries! These would look tasty any day of the week, but I am on a low carb diet and they look even more amazing! OK and the sauce even though it has mayo...hehe looks yummy too! I want to treat myself to some of these soon!
Carbs are so tempting, aren't they, Heather? I have a hard time staying away:)
These look delicious! I've never heard of Old Bay, will have to try. Wonder how the sodium is?
Thanks, Denise! I hadn't used it in years, but now I'm putting it on everything;) It does have salt added, so if you're watching your salt intake, you could leave out the rest of the salt in the recipe.
Mm, these look scrumptious!
Thanks, Sarah! They're delicious! Hope you try the recipe:)
