Another dish from Curtis Stone’s « Relaxed Cooking With You. » Sour cream and chives top a baked potato. If you’re looking for a comfort meal, baked potatoes could be it. Miniature versions are very delicious as a snack. To make the potatoes more fluffy and drier, cook them on a bed of salt. This will allow them to absorb more of your favorite toppings, such as sour cream, butter, bacon, grated cheese, or anything else you can think of. Curtis Stone Cookbook provided the following excerpt.
The aromatic flavors of garlic, sea salt, and fresh herbs were absorbed by the potatoes while baking, resulting in a wonderfully tasty dish that pairs well with any barbecue meat. As Chef Curtis himself suggested, add some sour cream over top. Another delicious option is crispy bacon and grated cheese. Is it obvious to you why Curtis Stone’s cookbook is my favorite?
