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.

THE BEST CRISPY ROAST POTATOES EVER RECIPE

Steps:

• Adjust oven rack to center position and preheat oven to 450°F (230°C) (or 400°F (200°C) if using convection). Heat 2 quarts (2L) water in a large pot over high heat until boiling. Add 2 tablespoons kosher salt (about 1 ounce; 25g), baking soda, and potatoes and stir. Return to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook until a knife meets little resistance when inserted into a potato chunk, about 10 minutes after returning to a boil.

LARRY'S CRISPY POTATOES

Steps:

• Peel cooked potatoes and dice in 1\" cubes.
• Place in an 8x11x2\" baking dish that has been sprayed with nonstick spray; sprinkle with chopped green onions, Italian seasoning, and freshly ground pepper and mix gently with a fork to distribute the ingredients.
• Pour chicken (or can use vegetable) stock over the potatoes and sprinkle generously with Hungarian paprika.
• Bake in a preheated 400 oven on upper shelf.
• Stir every 15 minutes until nicely browned and crisp, about 45 minutes.
• Place under broiler to complete browning before serving.
• To Serve: Garnish with freshly chopped Italian parsley or fresh basil.
• VARIATION: In step 4, after stirring, spray with a mixture of 3 tablespoons mild soy sauce and 1/4 cup water placed in a plastic spray bottle; stir again.
• Spray and stir every 15 minutes - this will, of course, increase the sodium content of the recipe.
