I received this recipe for bacon-wrapped potatoes years ago from a friend. It's a delicious new twist to a baked potato. I recently served these potatoes to visiting relatives from Norway, and they were a big hit. I love to cook and even wrote my own cookbook several years ago. -LaVerna Mjones, Moorhead, Minnesota

PERFECT FINGERLING POTATOES



Perfect Fingerling Potatoes image

This recipe is from Alton Brown's Eat This Rock! You cook the potatoes in heavily salted water and the salt crystallizes on the outside of the potatoes. It seems like a lot of salt but it works. The reviews rave over it! I have slightly adapted it. They are even good cold!

Time 35m

Yield 6-8

1 1/4 lbs kosher salt (or rock salt)

fresh ground black pepper (optional)
1 tablespoon freshly chopped scallion, green part only (optional)

  • Use a toothpick to secure the bacon around the potatoes: This will help to keep them in place while they are cooking.
  • Bake the potatoes at a high temperature: This will help them to get crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
  • Serve the potatoes with your favorite dipping sauce: Ranch dressing, ketchup, or barbecue sauce are all great options.
