Notes
Using a baking sheet with a rack helps cook the squash evenly by allowing air circulation under the fries. It also helps keep the squash drier by allowing excess oil and moisture to drain below the rack. If you do not have a rack, you can cook the squash directly on the baking sheet, but best results may be obtained by turning the fries half-way through the cook time.
