My thoughts:
When the folks at Betty Crocker asked me to come upwardly up amongst a recipe showcasing the versatility of potatoes, I knew the method I wanted to use. It is really uncomplicated but non 1 I run into really often. You are basically braising the potatoes inward but a flake of liquid thence slap-up their skins together with allowing them to caramelize. It is based on an quondam French method but I jazzed it upwardly (and honestly, gilt the lily) past times adding bacon, onions together with but a sprinkle of cheese at the end. The The potatoes are positively dripping amongst season together with the onions caramelize amongst virtually no endeavour on your purpose together with the whole dish is but a the most savory, smoky, decadent manner to serve potatoes. I similar using babe potatoes, I most oftentimes usage the yellow-fleshed varieties or the mixed pocketbook of cherry-red white together with bluish if I tin find* them but fingerlings move good too. Don't usage cutting upwardly or whole large potatoes because the texture volition non live on right together with all of the yummy crispness volition live on missing.


*blue potatoes convey been oddly absent from the stores lately, fifty-fifty inward tater chip form. Blue tater blight?
