SALMON-ROE-TOPPED BAKED POTATOES WITH CRèME FRAîCHE
A riff on a recipe for a potato stuffed with rosemary and pork rillettes from Nigel Slater, the British food writer, this version relies on salmon roe and crème fraîche. The pairing is, as Ms. Clark wrote, "a briny, creamy analogue" to a porky version. Try it as a bright and festive appetizer during the holidays, or skip the salmon roe for a still-satisfying meal.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Rub potatoes with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and pierce twice with a fork (don't worry if some salt falls off). Place potatoes on a baking sheet and bake until skin is crispy and insides are tender when pierced with a fork, 60 to 70 minutes.
- When potatoes have cooled enough to handle, use a sharp knife to slice off tops. Scoop out insides, leaving about 1/4 inch around skin; transfer potato flesh to a bowl. Add crème fraîche, butter, chives, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper; mash with a fork until combined.
- Stuff potato skins with potato mixture. Return potatoes to oven and bake until heated through, about 10 minutes. Run under broiler for another 1 to 2 minutes until tops are golden brown and crisp. Serve hot, topped with salmon roe and additional crème fraîche, if desired.

[email protected]This dish was just okay. The potatoes were a little dry and the salmon roe topping was bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

[email protected]The recipe was easy to follow and the potatoes turned out great. I didn't have any creme fraiche, so I used sour cream instead. It was still delicious.
