SYRACUSE SALT POTATOES

Steps:

• Wash the potatoes and set aside. Fill a large pot with water; stir in salt until it no longer dissolves and settles on the bottom. Place potatoes in the pot and bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender but firm, about 15 minutes. Drain; cover to keep hot.
• While the potatoes are cooking, melt the butter in a small pan over medium high heat, or in microwave. Serve immediately poured over potatoes.

ROASTED BABY RED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Spray an oven-proof dish with non-stick cooking spray. Add vegetables and drizzle with olive oil, tossing to coat.
• Sprinkle with freshly ground pepper and salt to taste.
• Place dish in oven and bake for 15 minutes, stir and return to oven for an additional 15 minutes or until potatoes are just tender.
• Sprinkle with dried basil, adjust salt and pepper as needed, cover and allow to stand for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

SALT POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the potatoes, 8 cups water and the salt in a large pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 30 minutes.
• Drain the potatoes in a colander and shake to remove excess water. Let the skins dry in the colander so that some of the salt crystallizes.
• Meanwhile, put the butter in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave until melted. Serve the potatoes hot with the butter for dipping.

OVEN ROASTED BABY RED POTATOES

Steps:

• Cut potatoes into 1" to 1 1/2" pieces. We didn't cut the really tiny taters. Place them in a large pot half full with warm water. Bring potatoes to a boil and cook for 7-9 minutes (they should be almost cooked) Drain, cover to keep warm, and set aside
• In a small bowl, mix together 2 Tbsp olive oil, 2 pressed garlic cloves, 1 1/2 tsp dry parsley, 1 tsp sea salt (or 3/4 tsp table salt) and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
• Gently Toss potatoes with the seasoning mix until evenly coated (it helps to use a large mixing bowl for tossing).
• Transfer potatoes to a large rimmed, non-stick baking pan and place cut side down. Bake at 425° for 20 minutes or until the sides facing the pan are golden. Transfer to a serving bowl, garnish with chopped fresh dill if desired and serve.

SKILLET RED POTATOES & ONIONS

Steps:

• Slice raw red potatoes (leaving skin on) in half. Be sure to cut them right down the middle so you do not end up with one size significantly larger than the other side. This helps keep potatoes cooking even.
• Dice half a white onion and cut 4 pieces of bacon into 1 inch strips (kitchen scissors work well for this).
• Place halved red potatoes, cut side down, in a cast iron skillet .
• Add 2 cups of cold water, diced white onion, cut bacon slices and a dash of salt and pepper to the same pan.
• Heat skillet over medium-high heat until water is boiling. Lower heat to medium and place lid on pan.
• Potatoes will continue to simmer and get tender, which takes about 15 minutes.
• Remove lid and simmer potatoes and onions until water evaporates out of the pan. Depending on the size of the pan and potatoes, this may take about 10 minutes. If for some reason all the water doesn't evaporate but the potatoes are totally done, I have occasionally put the lid on the pan and using safety gloves, carefully draining excess water out of pan into the sink before placing back to stove top.
• Turn skillet on medium-high (after water is gone) and let potatoes and bacon continue to brown in skillet. Please note that the potatoes will not fully brown but leave small crispy brown spots as they heat up. It is fine to scrap bottom of pan for extra char flavor and flip potatoes a few times.
• Once potatoes and onions are ready, sprinkle on chopped green onion for some additional flavor and color.
• Other herbs that go great with skillet potatoes are fresh thyme, dill weed, and fresh rosemary. Additionally minced garlic and garlic salt can be delicious additions.
• Serve while hot!

THE BEST BUTTERY PARSLEY BOILED POTATOES

Steps:

• Add the potatoes to a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by 2 inches.
• Bring to a boil and add 1 teaspoon of kosher salt. Reduce to a rolling simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork tender and the skin is beginning to fall away from the potatoes, about 20 minutes.
• Drain the water from the pan. Quickly add the potatoes back to the saucepan with the butter and parsley, and season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Give the potatoes a vigorous stir with a wooden spoon or shake with the lid on so the potatoes break up a bit. Let sit on the still warm (but off) burner for 5-10 minutes and serve.
