Steps:
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 450°F. Generously butter a large (13- by 9- by 2-inch) shallow baking pan.
- Heat zest, juice, molasses, salt, and pepper in a small saucepan over moderate heat, stirring, until molasses is dissolved.
- Toss potatoes with molasses mixture in baking pan and arrange, cut sides down, in 1 layer. Bake, uncovered, turning over once (to other cut side), until tender and glazed, 25 to 30 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Look for small, new potatoes that are about 1-2 inches in diameter. These potatoes will hold their shape better when boiled.
- Boil the potatoes until tender: The potatoes should be tender enough to be easily pierced with a fork. Overcooking will make them mushy.
- Make the glaze while the potatoes are boiling: This will give the glaze time to thicken and develop flavor.
- Use a good quality molasses: Molasses is the key ingredient in this recipe, so be sure to use a good quality product. Dark molasses has a stronger flavor than light molasses, so use it if you want a more intense flavor.
- Serve the potatoes hot: These potatoes are best served hot, so make them just before you're ready to eat.
Conclusion:
Molasses new potatoes are a delicious and easy side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. They're also a great way to use up leftover mashed potatoes. The glaze is sweet and tangy, and it perfectly complements the tender potatoes. Whether you're looking for a new side dish for your next dinner party or a quick and easy weeknight meal, molasses new potatoes are sure to please everyone at the table.
