CRISPIEST EVER POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Add the potatoes to a large saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Add the baking soda and 1 tablespoon salt to the water. Cover, place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Uncover and continue to boil until the potatoes give easily when pierced with the tip of a knife, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and set the strainer over the top of the pan for a few minutes so the outsides of the potatoes can dry.
• Dump the potatoes onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and toss with the garlic, thyme and rosemary until the potatoes are completely coated in the oil. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Using a small juice glass or glass bowl, smash each potato firmly but gently. (You want to just crack the skins and flatten slightly while keeping the potatoes mostly intact.)
• Roast until the bottoms of the potatoes are deep golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and flip the potatoes using a spatula. Roast until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on both sides, an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a platter with a metal spatula. Serve while hot.

CRISPY POTATO SKIN SCOOPS

Steps:

• Place the potatoes on a microwave-safe plate in an even layer, then microwave on high until knife-tender, flipping each halfway through, 5 to 6 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Cut each potato in half crosswise. Use a 1/4 teaspoon measuring spoon to scoop out the potato, leaving a thin border around the edge. Transfer the scooped-out potato to a medium bowl, then cover and reserve.
• Meanwhile, fill a large heavy-bottom pot or Dutch oven with 2 inches of canola oil and attach a deep-fry thermometer to the pot. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F over medium-high heat. Line a rimmed baking sheet with a couple paper towels; set aside.
• Whisk the potato starch and 1/3 cup water in a medium bowl until smooth. Dip the potato shells into the potato-starch slurry, letting any excess drip back into the bowl, then carefully lower into the hot oil. Cook, in batches, until well browned and crispy, about 4 minutes per batch. Remove from the hot oil with a slotted spoon and place cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet. Season with salt and then flip over cut-side down to drain.
• Add the butter to the reserved scoop-out potato and reheat in the microwave until warm, stirring halfway through, about 3 minutes. Use a fork or potato masher to mash the potato until almost smooth, then stir in the sour cream, Cheddar, scallions, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper until combined.
• Using the 1/4 teaspoon measuring spoon, spoon the filling into the crispy potato skin scoops. Transfer to a serving platter and sprinkle with a pinch of cayenne.
