Buttered New Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 3 tablespoons salt, stirring to dissolve. Pierce each potato 3 times with a skewer, add to water, and return to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain, and return potatoes to pot. Set over low heat, shaking pan often, for 2 minutes to dry out, then let cool.
• Peel the potatoes, and cut into 1-inch pieces. Transfer to a bowl, and stir in butter. Sprinkle with chives, and season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Add potato to salted water in a large saucepan. Cook, covered, 10 minutes or until tender. Drain. (Do NOT overcook the potatoes- they will be mushy!).
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add garlic and salt (optional). Cook, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes or until garlic is tender.
• Add parsley, pepper, and dill (optional). Pour over potatoes, tossing gently to coat.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Put the potatoes, garlic, bay leaf, and peppercorns in a large saucepan, add cold water to cover by about an inch and season generously with salt,. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer until potatoes are fork tender, about 5 to 8 minutes depending on their size.
• Drain and discard the garlic, bay leaves, and peppercorns. Halve the potatoes, if large, toss with the butter and season with salt, and pepper, to taste. Keep warm.

Steps:

• Preheat a charcoal or gas grill to high.
• Put the potatoes in a 2-quart pot. Add enough water to cover the potatoes by 2 inches and enough salt to make the water taste like seawater. Add the garlic and bay leaves.
• Bring the potatoes to a boil and then cook at a gentle simmer until they test tender when poked with a thin fork, 15 to 20 minutes, though it depends on the size and age of the potatoes. Drain the contents of the pot into a sieve set over a heavy bowl, filling the bowl with the hot water just to warm it. Throw out the water, drop the potatoes in the bowl and cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap to keep the potatoes warm.
• As the potatoes cook, toss the onions with a little canola oil and salt and pepper and grill over medium-high heat until charred and soft. On the same grill, heat a cast-iron pan. Add the butter and cook until it browns. Remove from the heat, add the rosemary and give the pan a shake; the butter will foam. When it stops sizzling, add the onions to the butter and cook over low heat until they are very tender and the butter has taken on a pronounced oniony flavor.
• Remove the spent rosemary sprigs. Pour the butter and onion mixture over the warm cooked potatoes and serve right away.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a Dutch oven or large heavy-bottomed pot. Add the whole potatoes, salt, and pepper and toss well. Cover the pot tightly and cook over low heat for 20 to 30 minutes, until the potatoes are just tender when tested with a small knife. From time to time, shake the pot without removing the lid to prevent the bottom potatoes from burning. Turn off the heat and allow the potatoes to steam for another 5 minutes. Don't overcook! Toss with the herbs, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Adjust an oven rack to the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Lay 2 large sheets of aluminum foil on a sheet pan. In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, onion, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Use a rubber spatula to toss well to coat. Divide the mixture in the middle of each of the foil sheets. Dot with the cubes of butter and place the rosemary sprigs on top. Bring the edges of the foil up and around the potatoes and seal tightly. Place the packets on a baking sheet and roast, until the potatoes are tender, 30 to 35 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Half the potatoes lengthwise and cut them into 1-inch-wide wedges. In a medium bowl, toss the potatoes with the butter and 1 teaspoon of salt. Spread the potatoes out on a roasting pan large enough to hold them in a single layer. (Arrange the potatoes cut-side down, to ensure crisply browned edges.)
• Roast the potatoes until golden brown, about 45 minute. Add the garlic and stir to coat the potatoes evenly. Continue to roast until the potatoes and garlic are evenly browned, about 15 minutes more. (Take care that the garlic doesn't burn.) Remove from the oven and mix with the parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve.

Steps:

• Place a pot of water on to boil.
• Heat a vegetable dish.
• Pop the potatoes into the boiling water with a pinch of crystallized salt (the parsley stalk and mint stalk can be added).
• Cover with a tightly fitting lid.
• Boil for 20 minutes on high heat.
• Drain and submerge in cold running water.
• Put them between your hands and the skin will come away easily.
• Melt butter in the bottom of a pan.
• Place potatoes in the pan, roll to coat with butter, and cover with a clean cloth.
• Place over the lowest heat, using a heat pad to deflect direct contact, until potatoes are ready to serve.
• Wash the mint and parsley and chop (Can be done earlier unless you wish to boil the stalks with the potatoes).
• Remove the cloth and dust with the chopped mint and parsley.
• Place in the vegetable dish and serve.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Melt butter in a dutch oven or 10" skillet. Add potatoes, stir to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Cover and cook on low, shaking the pan occasionally until the potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes.
• Put in serving dish, pour any remaining butter over and sprinkle with fresh parsley or dill.

Steps:

• Cut potatoes in half and saute them in butter in a heavy, nonstick, large saute pan, Dutch oven or electric skillet, until golden and beginning to crisp on the outside, about 25 minutes.
• Add the rosemary and scallions to the pan and stir well.
• Saute contents gently for another 10-15 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
• Season, to taste, with salt and pepper and serve warm.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Wash the potatoes.
• In a large bowl, mix the salt, rosemary needles, peppercorns and 1 cup water together with your hands, crushing the peppercorns a little between your fingers and bruising the rosemary needles to release their sticky oil, making a moist, fragrant and pink-and-green speckled sand. (You might have to add a few splashes of water if the mixture needs more moisture to feel like wet sand.)
• Transfer a little less than half this salt mixture into the bottom of a wide, shallow, heavy ovenproof skillet or casserole to make a salt bed about 1/2-inch thick.
• Nestle the potatoes into the sand, close to one another but not quite touching, if possible.
• Pack the rest of the salt mixture over the nestled potatoes, and rub and brush and smooth it with your hands until you have tightly encased the potatoes in a little salt sarcophagus. The rounded tops of the potatoes will just show as bumps under the salt cast.
• Bake the potatoes for 30 to 40 minutes, until a cake tester easily pierces the potatoes and tests warm on your chin or the back of your hand. The salt casing will dry and harden like clay - and smell delicious while baking.
• While the potatoes roast, prepare the compound butter: Grind the peppercorns in a mortar and pestle with the whole branches of rosemary to create an oily, coarse powder. Remove the bruised rosemary sprigs, shaking off any clinging pink peppercorns, and discard. (You just want to extract the oily flavor from the rosemary, not the needles themselves.) In a small bowl, mash the oily peppercorn powder with the salted butter using a fork until well blended.
• To serve, rap the salt-packed potatoes forcefully on a sturdy surface that can handle it, to crack the salt crust from the force. A few solid raps will loosen the potatoes inside. If the cast needs a little more help, use a regular dinner knife like a spade to just pop open the salt crust along its fault lines. The potatoes are easily plucked from the dry salt. Set out with the compound butter in a small bowl on the side.

Steps:

• Mash butter and 2 tablespoons dill in a small bowl. Season dill butter with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 week ahead. Cover and chill.

• Transfer hot potatoes to a medium bowl; add dill butter and 1 tablespoon water. Toss, adding water by teaspoonfuls as needed, until butter lightly coats potatoes with a glossy sauce. Season with salt and pepper and transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with more dill and caraway seeds, if desired.

Steps:

• Steam the potatoes, covered, over boiling water until cooked, testing with a bamboo skewer to avoid splitting them, for about 15 minutes.
