@Mary, with a small but sharp knife. Last time they were too crispy, close to burnt, because I cut them shoestring-ish (or thinner) size and baked them a little too long. I need to try a more wedge-like shape. One thing that apparently helps is to soak (blanch) them in cold water for 10 minutes before baking.

Apropos of absolutely nothing, I think I'm pretty good amateur linguistic forensics, and can tell when an internet "unsub" has changed its moniker in order to avoid detection for some reason, because its language and communication style is exactly the same as before.
