Crushed Red Bliss Potatoes Food

BACON-ROSEMARY-RED BLISS HASH

Steps:

• Put potatoes in a large pot and cover with water by at least 3 inches. Add salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat and simmer potatoes until fork tender, about 25 minutes.
• Drain potatoes and return to pot to cool slightly. Roughly smash potatoes in pot with a masher or a large fork.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the bacon and cook until bacon is crispy and has given up most of its fat. Lower the heat to medium-high, add the rosemary and season with salt and pepper. Make sure bacon and rosemary are evenly distributed in the pan then add the potatoes.
• Pat down with a spatula so the potatoes are in an even layer. Season the top of the potatoes with salt and pepper.
• Cook until a nice brown crust has formed on the bottom, about 5 to 7 minutes. Use the spatula to flip the potatoes, cook until brown on the other side, about 5 minutes.

GOLDEN CRUSHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Steam the potatoes, whole, for 20 minutes, until they are still firm yet easily pierced with a fork. Drain.
• Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place a potato on the tray, cut a small cross about 1/4-inch deep into the potato and crush the potato with the back of a wooden spoon to flatten into a patty about 1/2-inch thick. Try to crush it just enough so it stays together with most of its skin intact. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
• Brush the tops of the potatoes with the oil, sprinkle with salt and bake until crisp and golden, about 20 minutes.

ROASTED RED BLISS POTATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Scrub the potatoes well and cut them in half. In a bowl combine the potatoes with the olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper, tossing to coat. Arrange the potatoes in a roasting pan in a single layer and sprinkle with 1/4 cup water. Roast the potatoes for 45 minutes or until the potatoes and garlic are tender and golden brown. In a serving bowl toss the potatoes and garlic with the Parmesan and parsley.;

GARLIC RED BLISS MASH

Steps:

• In a large pot, cover potatoes and garlic with water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, add salt and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain well.
• Put the potatoes and garlic back in the pot and cook over low heat to evaporate the rest of the water. Mash in the butter with a potato masher. Add the heavy cream in stages until the desired consistency reached. Season with salt and pepper.

SMASHED POTATOES WITH EGGS AND ROSEMARY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Boil potatoes in salted water with 1 sprig of the rosemary and 2 cloves of garlic until tender. Drain potatoes and discard rosemary and garlic. Place potatoes on a cutting board and use the side of a cleaver or the bottom of a pot to lightly crush them, keeping them as intact as possible.
• Strip leaves from remaining rosemary sprig and chop. Mince remaining garlic clove. Place in a dish with lemon juice and zest and whisk in olive oil and chile flakes. Season with salt. Heat oven to 200 degrees. Line a small baking sheet with a couple of layers of paper towels.
• Heat grape seed or canola oil on medium-high to a depth of 1/2 inch in a skillet large enough to hold potatoes in a single layer (a 10-inch skillet should work). When oil is hot, add smashed potatoes and fry, turning once, until golden brown and crusty. Season with salt, transfer to baking sheet and place in the oven.
• Bring an inch or so of water to a simmer in a shallow 2-quart saucepan. Add vinegar. Break an egg into a teacup and slip the egg out of the cup and into the water. Repeat with second egg. (And with two more eggs if you desire.) Simmer until just set, about 3 minutes. Divide potatoes between two warm plates, give the vinaigrette another whisking and drizzle about half of it over the potatoes. Use a slotted spoon to lift eggs from the water and place onto the potatoes. Drizzle eggs with the rest of the vinaigrette and serve.

BUTTERY RED BLISS POTATOES

Steps:

• Use a vegetable peeler and remove the band of skin around the center of each potato, either in a straight line or squiggly line. Tip: I find it [much] easier to use a sharp paring knife to remove the peel.
• Place the potatoes in a large pot and add enough water to cover. Add some salt to the pot and bring the water to a boil.
• Reduce heat and simmer the potatoes for 20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender but not mushy.
• Drain.
• In serving bowl, toss the potatoes with the melted butter, marjoram, salt and pepper.
