Stained Glass Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Add the potatoes to a large saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Add the baking soda and 1 tablespoon salt to the water. Cover, place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Uncover and continue to boil until the potatoes give easily when pierced with the tip of a knife, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and set the strainer over the top of the pan for a few minutes so the outsides of the potatoes can dry.
• Dump the potatoes onto a baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and toss with the garlic, thyme and rosemary until the potatoes are completely coated in the oil. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Using a small juice glass or glass bowl, smash each potato firmly but gently. (You want to just crack the skins and flatten slightly while keeping the potatoes mostly intact.)
• Roast until the bottoms of the potatoes are deep golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and flip the potatoes using a spatula. Roast until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy on both sides, an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a platter with a metal spatula. Serve while hot.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375°F.
• Wash, scrub, and dry you potatoes well as the skin will be left on.
• Using a slicer or a mandolin slice the potatoes long ways very thinly, about 1/16 of an inch (you can do this by hand, just be very careful to keep the slices thin enough and even).
• On a sheet pat place one silpat and place your egg whites in a shallow dish.
• Dip one slice of potato, place it on the silpat.
• Place one parsley leaf on top of the potato slice.
• Dip another potato slice in the egg white mixture and lay it on top of the original potato slice and the parsley leaf- you have just made one stained glass potato.
• Repeat this until the sheet pan is full but not over crowded.
• Gently pour vegetable oil onto the silpat, pour just enough that each stained glass potato is surrounded and coated--be careful that they do not move around too much.
• Place a second silpat on top of the stained glass potatoes and oil.
• Place in the oven and back until golden brown, remove and blot dry.
• Once made these potatoes can be blotted and kept in a cool *DRY* place up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• In a bowl, dissolve the lime gelatin in 3 cups boiling water. Pour into an 8-in. square dish coated with cooking spray. In another bowl, dissolve orange gelatin in remaining boiling water. Pour into another 8-in. square dish coated with cooking spray. Refrigerate for 4 hours or until very firm., In a small saucepan, sprinkle unflavored gelatin over cold water; let stand for 1 minute. Add grape juice. Heat over low heat, stirring until gelatin is completely dissolved. Pour into a large bowl; refrigerate for 45 minutes or until slightly thickened. Fold in whipped topping., Cut green gelatin into 1/2-in. cubes and orange gelatin into 1-in. cubes. Set aside 8-10 cubes of each color for garnish. Place 2 cups whipped topping mixture in a bowl; fold in remaining green cubes. Spread into a 13x9-in. dish coated with cooking spray. Fold remaining orange cubes into remaining whipped topping mixture; spread over bottom layer. Sprinkle with reserved green and orange gelatin cubes. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until set. Cut into squares.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Using a brush, paint a thin, even coating of butter on the parchment; sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
• Using a mandoline, slice potatoes lengthwise into even, translucent slices. Place the slices 1/4 inch apart on the buttered parchment. Brush potato slices with butter, leaving no streaks or puddles. Place 1 or 2 parsley leaves on top of each, and flatten with your fingers. Place a matching-size potato slice on top, flatten with your fingers, brush with butter, and lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover potatoes with a piece of parchment paper, and place another sheet pan on top. Weight the top baking pan with three bricks, or completely fill pan with raw dried beans.
• Bake, rotating pans halfway through, until potatoes are crisp and golden brown all over, about 12 minutes. Remove from oven, and serve.
