Wipe the dirt off. Most of it, anyway.

[Grim Chieftain]

27. I love potatoes

A few years ago, when I was trying to eat healthier, I found simple recipe for baked (microwaved) potato with fresh steamed broccoli and a bit of grated cheddar cheese on top. Oh, my goodness, eating healthy has never tasted so good!

[MiHale]

32. Oh Dog...we grow potatoes...they're my wife's favorite food...

Any way from chips to baked, from fries to mashed, from boiled to broiled…

But by far my personal favorite is Jacques Pepin style formulated by Rachael Ray…

Place the potatoes in a deep skillet and add salt and pepper, to taste. Cover potatoes halfway with chicken stock, about 3 cups, add the butter and cover skillet with a lid. Cook the potatoes in the stock until almost tender, about 5 to 8 minutes, depending upon the size of the potatoes. Remove the lid and allow the stock to evaporate, about another 5 minutes. Once the stock has evaporated pop each potato using a ladle or large spoon, creating a small crack in each, but do not smash. Allow the potatoes to brown on each side, another 5 minutes, and re-season with salt and pepper, if necessary or desired. Remove the browned potatoes from the skillet and place onto a serving platter, garnished with the parsley.

[debm55]

36. Oh Wow, MiHale. that sounds very delicious. I have written down the recipe(TYVM) and will try it out. And you and Mrs.

MiHale enjoy.

[ProfessorGAC]

39. My Wife Answers "Yes"

There is no form of potato she doesn't love.
When we went out for our anniversary & she was raving about the garlic mashed potatoes.
Expensive seafood platter & she commented more about the potatoes than on the crab & lobster.
I like steak fries or a potato puree with saffron.

[electric_blue68]

43. See my #41 post for Skordalia.

She'll probably love it! 👍

[debm55]

47. Thank you very much for sharing, ProfessorGAC. That's funny about your anniversary dinner. Say hello to Mrs. GAC.

[lpbk2713]

40. I like au gratin.

But baked is good because they are easy to prepare.

[debm55]

48. Agree. thank you very much for sharing with us. lpbk2713 and enjoy.

[electric_blue68]

41. Favorites: pancakes, au gratin, french fries, roasted...

I like baked, mashed, and chips, too.

Steamed are kind of boring, but helped by (what isn't 😄 ) butter. I only mention them bc we were served them tonight. I asked for butter!

Emile rmnded ne of hash browns, and Pika of potato salad. How could I forget potato salad!

Skordalia is Greek dip/meze that can be made with puréed potatoes, garlic paste (garlic, olive oil + vinegar, or lemon). YUM!
It's also otherwise made w soaked stale bread, but I've never had that version.

[ProfessorGAC]

46. You Are Correct!

She would love that.
I made Okonomiyakia couple times. She loved those 2.
Potato pancake, with scallions & Asian spices.

[electric_blue68]

53. Looked it up. Interesting!

[debm55]

49. Wow, Thank you very much for sharing your selections with us. electric_blue68. The Skordalia sounds wonderful

[electric_blue68]

54. It sure is!

😄👍

[markodochartaigh]

44. Potato pancakes,

boxty, bacstaí, steaimpí. Whatever you call them they're my favorite.

[debm55]

51. Thank you very much markodochartaigh. Potato pancakes would have first on my list but they take some time to prepare.

Now tell me, sour cream, applesauce or other as a topping?

[markodochartaigh]

62. Sour cream and chives,

on Saint Brigid's day cheese and butter are a must. Or, if there is stew, with some stewed vegetables on top.

[debm55]

64. Thank you very much, markodochartaigh. Enjoy.

[applegrove]

45. New potatoes, boiled and covered in butter and chives.

[debm55]

56. Thank you so much for sharing with us, applegrove. They sound wonderful.

[LogDog75]

50. Baked or spuds

I prefer them as baked or spuds. On a baked potato, I like to put butter ketchup on it. Only ketchup on spuds. I know people think it's crazy that I put ketchup on a baked potato but as I explain to them it's basically the same as the inside of a french fry.

[debm55]

57. HAHHAHHAHAHAHA. thank you for sharing your unique way of having a baked potato, LogDog75, Enjoy.

[enid602]

52. Baked

Baked, with non fat plain Greek Yogurt instead of sour cream. No butter. With cheddar and chives.

[debm55]

58. Thank you very much for sharing your selection with us, enid602. Enjoy.

[LoisB]

55. Any way except scalloped and potato salad with mustard in it.

[debm55]

59. Thank you very much, LoisB. I am not a big fan of potato salad with mustard. either. Enjoy all the rest.

[BootinUp]

60. Potato salad, ready to eat. lol.

[debm55]

61. Hahahaahaha. Thank you , BootinUp but that's cheating.

[3catwoman3]

63. Mashed. Baked. Hash browns. Fries. Home fries. What's not to like

And, of course - POTATO CHIPS!

My new favorite potato chip is Kettle brand ruffled potato chips with Himalayan pink salt. They are slightly thick, super crunchy, and a bit greasy in a good way. My local Costco carries a massive 2 pound bag for just $5.99. I am crunching away on some right now.

[debm55]

65. Thank you very much for sharing with us, 3catwoman3. The chips sound great. Enjoy.

[nuxvomica]

66. My favorite is twice-baked

But it's a lot of work, especially keeping the skins from falling apart. I bake the potatoes in their skins, then cut each one in two, carefully scooping them out and mashing them, then refilling the skins, scoring the tops with a fork, sprinkling with paprika and adding a pad of butter. I bake them in the oven till the ridges made by the scoring start to brown.
