Amen, Brother!  Preach it!  ;D

Doing another batch tomorrow!

[Smokin Soon]

I did a batch tonight, and must confess that I did a rinse after they dried, cause I have to watch my salt. They were the smoothest spuds I have ever had. I even munched a couple cold.
Good stuff!

Oh man!

I wish I didn't see this post before going grocery shopping. Now I'm going to make another batch today. I can hear my doctor lecturing me at my next appointment.

[FLBentRider]

Sounds like I need to try these....

Now how to make them low-carb......

::) ::) ::)

I think I'm going to try and kick mine up a notch.  I'm going to do two batches because of the extra folks here and I think one batch will have some minced smoked garlic added into the butter and dill topping that is poured over the potatoes.  I'll let you know how it turns out.

I was in Price Chopper and about ready to buy some baby yukon golds, I looked over to my left, and saw this bag labeled salt potatoes. It was a kit, to make your own. I haven't seen these in years, or maybe I just wasn't looking close enough.

For $4.00 you get 4.25 pounds of #2 potatoes (golf ball size), and 12 ounces of salt. Compare that with $3.00 - $4.00 per pound for baby yukons. Well! Though I love baby yukons, this price was too good to pass up.

I think I would have bought that package too.  I paid 3.99 for 1 1/2 lbs of baby yukons last week.   They were yummy but not an all the time purchase.

I just noticed that, but after you read my post on the cheese packaging, you won't be apologizing any more  :o ;) ;D

Late night snack: Smash a couple of leftover SS spuds, crack an egg and into the micro, Pretty tasty!

SS;
On the package, there are directions for low salt cooking. After I have another cup of coffee, and find my reading glasses I will post the low salt version. But I'm sticking with Cook's Country's (America's Test Kitchen) recommendation. They tested several salt to water ratios before settling on the ratio they chose.

Deb;
Check in the potato aisle; your store may have them. The brand that I have is Masser's Country Style Salt Potatoes. It's packaged in a small white paper bag. At first I just thought they were just a five pound bag of potatoes. These look like they will require more scrubbing then new potatoes or baby yukon gold.

Thanks Habs,  I will look for those.  I don't buy alot of potatoes so never look at the ones in paper bags.  Price Chopper near my house closed a few months ago so I now only have Shop-rite & StopNShop to choose from.
