SOUR CREAM AND ONION-SPICED GRILLED TORNADO POTATOES

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for cooking over medium heat.
• In a bowl, whisk together the milk powder, Parmesan, chives, dill, onion powder, granulated garlic, parsley, salt and sugar. Mix thoroughly to combine.
• Place the olive oil in a separate bowl and mix in 1 tablespoon of the spice mixture.
• Insert a bamboo skewer lengthwise through the center of each potato. With a sharp paring knife, cut a potato in a spiral pattern all the way down to the skewer, beginning at the top of the potato with the knife set at a 15 to 20 degree angle. Rotate the potato as you cut until the entire the potato is cut through in a spiral pattern. Stretch the potato down the skewer. Repeat with the remaining potatoes.
• Set each skewer over a piece of aluminum foil. Brush each of the potatoes with a generous amount of the oil mixture, reserving a third for later. Wrap the potatoes in the foil, closing both ends so the oil cannot escape. Place on the grill and cook 8 minutes, then flip and cook 8 minutes more. Remove from the grill and let rest until cool enough to handle. (Leave the grill on.)
• Remove the skewers from the foil. Brush each potato with some of the remaining oil mixture and return to the grill until well browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter and sprinkle each with more of the dry spice mixture. (Extra spice mixture can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 months.)

TORNADO POTATOES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325ºF (160ºC).
• Microwave the potatoes for 1-1 ½ minutes, then leave in the microwave for a few minutes to cool down and soften. Insert a wooden skewer into the bottom of each potato and gently push it all the way through the top. Working in a spiral motion from one side to the other, hold a sharp, thin knife at an angle and cut in the opposite direction you are turning the skewered potato, cutting all the way down to the skewer. Take your time and work to make thin, even spiral all the way down the potato.
• Gently fan out each potato down the length of the skewer, until you have even gaps between the slices. Brush the melted butter all over the potatoes.
• In a medium bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and salt. Place each skewered potato over the bowl and sprinkle half of the spice mixture over each potato until they are entirely coated. Carefully set the potatoes on a baking pan, letting the skewers rest on sides of the pan so that the potatoes are suspended.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until nicely browned. Garnish with additional Parmesan and parsley. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
• Enjoy!

POTATO, CHEDDAR, AND CHIVE TORPEDOES

Steps:

• Prepare the potatoes in advance, allowing time for the potatoes and the cooking water to cool to lukewarm. Set these aside until needed. Pull the measured amount of barm out of the refrigerator 1 hour before making the bread to take off the chill.
• With a large metal spoon, stir together the barm, half of the flour, the yeast, cooked potatoes, and 1/2 cup of the potato water in a 4-quart bowl (or in the bowl of an electric mixer using the paddle attachment). Let this sit uncovered for 30 minutes.
• Add the rest of the flour and the salt and mix together until the ingredients form a ball, adding as much as you need of the remaining water.
• Sprinkle flour on the counter, transfer the dough to the counter, and knead the dough for about 6 minutes (or mix on medium-low speed with the dough hook). Add flour or water if needed. Add the chives and continue kneading (or mixing) until they are evenly distributed, about 2 minutes. (In the mixer, the dough should clear the sides of the bowl as well as the bottom of the bowl.) The dough should pass the windowpane test (page 58), be very tacky but not sticky, and register 77° to 81°F. Lightly oil a large bowl and transfer the dough to the bowl, rolling it to coat it with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap.
• Ferment at room temperature for about 90 minutes, or until the dough doubles in size.
• Transfer the dough to the counter and cut it into 2 equal pieces. Press each piece into the shape of a rectangle approximately 6 inches wide by 8 inches long. Lay 3 slices of cheese on each rectangle, covering the surface but leaving a 1/2-inch border uncovered around the edges. Tightly roll up the dough, from bottom to top, jelly-roll style, creating a spiral with the cheese. Seal the ends of the rolled dough, which should look like a log, into points by rolling them more forcefully with your hands. This will give the dough a torpedo look, plump in the center and tapered at the ends. As you roll down on the ends, be sure to squeeze out all trapped air pockets to avoid separation of the layers. Seal the bottom seam closed with the edge of your hand, as shown on page 81.
• Line a sheet pan with baking parchment, mist the parchment lightly with spray oil, then dust the parchment with cornmeal or semolina flour. Lay the 2 loaves across the width of the pan, mist the tops lightly with spray oil, and cover them loosely with plastic wrap or a towel.
• Proof at room temperature for approximately 1 hour, or until the dough nearly doubles in size.
• Prepare the oven for hearth baking page 91-94, making sure to have an empty steam pan in place. Preheat the oven to 500°F. Score the top of each loaf with 2 diagonal slashes as shown on page 90, making sure to cut through to the first layer of cheese.
• Generously dust a peel or the back of a sheet pan with semolina flour or cornmeal and very gently transfer the loaves, with or without parchment, to the peel or pan. Slide the loaves onto the baking stone or bake the loaves directly on the pan. Pour 1 cup hot water into the steam pan and shut the door. After 30 seconds, spray the oven walls with water and close the door again. Repeat twice more at 30-second intervals. After the final spray, lower the oven setting to 450°F and bake for 35 to 40 minutes. After 15 minutes, rotate the loaves 180 degrees, if necessary, for even baking. The loaves should register 200°F in the center, be nicely browned all over, and sound hollow when thumped on the bottom. The cheese will bubble out of the cuts, crisp up, and also brown.
• Transfer the finished loaves to a rack and cool for at least 45 minutes before slicing or serving.
• Enriched, standard dough; indirect method; mixed leavening method
• 1 hour to prepare potatoes and de-chill barm; 45 minutes mixing; 3 hours fermentation, shaping, and proofing; 35 to 4o minutes baking.
• These are mixed-method (wild yeast spiked with commercial yeast) bâtards. They pucker open with a grigne of crispy Cheddar cheese, followed by a beautiful soft cheese spiral highlighted with bits of green chives. Notice that the bread is made with a wet-sponge starter (the barm), but it can also be made with a firm starter, in which case you will need about 1/2 cup more water or potato water. The potato water, by the way, adds minerals and dissolved potato starch and sugars that greatly enhance the flavor and soften the dough.

TORPEDOES RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the masa, flour, and the 1 teaspoon salt, teat with an electric mixer on low to medium speed, gradually adding the warm water, until mixture forms a soft dough. Cover with a moist towel; let rest for 30 minutes. For filling, in a medium skillet, heat the 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add chorizo and cook until brown, using a wooden spoon to break up meat as it cooks; drain off fat. Add the cooked potatoes to the cooked chorizo. Using a potato masher, crush potatoes and chorizo to form a thick mixture. Season to taste with additional salt. Remove from heat; let cool. Using clean hands, shape dough into balls the size of golf balls. Using your thumb, make an indentation in the center of each masa ball; flatten each ball slightly. Place 1 tablespoon of the filling in each indentation; wrap the dough edges around the filling and shape into a cigar or torpedo shape. Press to seal ends of torpedoes. In a large skillet, heat the 1 cup oil over medium heat. Add the torpedoes to hot oil; fry the torpedoes until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle torpedoes with salt. Serve with Uncooked Tomatillo Salsa or purchased salsa and, if desired, garnish with fresh cilantro sprigs.
