MacKenzie Posted January 17, 2016 Report Posted January 17, 2016 Boiled (no slat in the water) these potatoes until they were just done, poured off most of the water and added a lot of salt, 1T or so and let the water boil off. It leaves a tasty salt coating on the potatoes. Served with a grilled meatball, broccoli, a mix of mushrooms, onions, and fennel. The potatoes were tasty and I'd like to have them with a nice steak next time.
tony b Posted January 17, 2016 Report Posted January 17, 2016 Serious spuds, MacKenzie (did you catch the pun there?) I've done several different variations on the salted crusted potatoes, but have not done it this way. Another tool in the box! Thanks for sharing, MacKenzie! Here's the latest version that I've tried. I liked it. First time, I got a little heavy handed with the salt, but the second time, I was a bit more careful and they came out super. http://www.cooksillustrated.com/recipes/4954-crisp-roasted-potatoes?ref=new_search_experience_8&incode=MCSCD00L0
