Baked Potato Covered With Salt Recipes

Steps:

• Scrub the potatoes well, rinse and allow to drip dry. Leave them whole and do not peel the skin.
• Preheat oven to (convection) 325 degrees or (regular) 350 degrees.
• Pour oil onto one small plate and salt onto another.
• Place an ungreased cookie sheet next to the plates.
• One by one, roll the potatoes in the olive oil. Allow excess to drip onto plate.
• Roll potato lightly in sea salt. You can rub the salt over the potato to spread it evenly. Do not oversalt (ie cover the whole potato). If you run out of salt, simply add more to the plate.
• Lay the potatoes on the cookie sheet. Drizzle any remaining olive oil over the potatoes. Use a fork to poke holes across the top of each potato to allow heat to vent.
• Place the cookie sheet on the middle rack of your oven. Allow to bake for 1 hour. Test with a fork. When potatoes are tender and the fork easily slides in, take them out and serve.
• Other baking option: You can try wrapping each potato tightly in foil instead of using a baking sheet. Just be very careful about steam burns when unwrapping the foil after baking.
• Microwave option: Wrap each potato tightly in a paper towel and place on a microwave-safe plate. Set the microwave to full power for 12 minutes. Check for doneness and continue at 2 minute intervals until tender. Note: I have not tried this method, but this is how long my microwave takes for 4 potatoes on its 'Potato' auto-setting.

Steps:

• For the rosemary salt potatoes:
• Clean potatoes and place whole in stock pot. Add cold water to cover, add salt, cover and bring to boil. Remove lid and boil 18 to 20 minutes, until tender.
• Remove from heat and drain. Return cooked potatoes to stock pot. Squeeze roasted garlic into pot, add butter, minced rosemary, and cracked pepper to taste, stir to coat potatoes. Serve 3 potatoes per plate.
• Place garlic in aluminum foil square. Drizzle with olive oil and salt liberally. Wrap with foil and grill for an hour. Remove from heat and remove foil.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450 degrees. Rub the garlic over the bottom and sides of a 12-inch-round gratin dish or a cast-iron skillet. Brush a thin layer of olive oil over the pan. Sprinkle the rosemary over the bottom of pan, and place potatoes in a snug layer on top.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the salt and flour. Slowly stir in 1/2 cup water until thoroughly combined. Pour the salt mixture over the potatoes in an even layer, making sure to fill in any gaps between the potatoes.
• Roast potatoes 1 hour 15 minutes. Remove pan from oven, and let potatoes cool 5 minutes. Invert pan onto a serving platter or into a large bowl. Drizzle potatoes with olive oil, and serve with sour cream.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a 13-by-9-inch baking pan, add salt to a depth of 1/3 inch. Place the potatoes in a single layer on top. Scatter the rosemary, cover with the remaining salt and bake until tender, 35 to 45 minutes.
• Leave the potatoes in the salt until ready to serve. Brush off as much salt as you like. Drizzle with olive oil and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 425°F.
• Prick potatoes in several places with a fork. Coat each potato with egg white, then crust potatoes completely in salt. Bake potatoes in a shallow baking pan until tender when pierced with a sharp knife, about 1 hour.
• Crack off as much salt as desired from skin before serving.

Steps:

• Pour about 1/2" of salt into the bottom of an oval 4-quart slow cooker. Place the potatoes in a single layer on top of the salt. Add more salt until the potatoes are completely covered. Cover and cook on high for 2 hours or until the potatoes are fork-tender.
• Crack the salt crust and remove the potatoes. Rub them with a towel to remove all the salt before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Put the egg whites and salt in 2 shallow bowls. Dip each potato into the egg white to completely cover, then dab into the salt to cover in patches. Carefully put the potatoes onto a baking sheet, pressing on any remaining salt, then bake for 1½ hrs.
• Bake them for a further 1 hr at 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Scrape off as little or as much of the salt as you like before eating.

Steps:

• Wash the potatoes and set aside. Fill a large pot with water; stir in salt until it no longer dissolves and settles on the bottom. Place potatoes in the pot and bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender but firm, about 15 minutes. Drain; cover to keep hot.
• While the potatoes are cooking, melt the butter in a small pan over medium high heat, or in microwave. Serve immediately poured over potatoes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Spread kosher salt in a 13x9" baking dish. Scrub potatoes, pat dry, and poke a few holes into each; arrange over salt. Roast until flesh is very tender and skins are crisp, 30-40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, strip leaves from rosemary sprigs and cook with garlic and oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, swirling pan occasionally, until garlic is golden, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and add potatoes; toss to coat. Serve potatoes generously sprinkled with sea salt.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Pour olive oil into a plastic bag. Measure the garlic salt and pepper onto a plate, and stir around a little. Coat each potato with olive oil by placing in the bag, and moving it around. Remove from the bag, and dip into the seasoning. Rub seasoning into the potato to coat. Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack.
• Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, or until the potatoes feel soft when you squeeze them.
