Domino Potatoes

Domino potatoes do not mean copying potatoes from the place of pizza. In fact, domino potatoes are a sliced ​​potato cooking method to obtain a golden domino model on the slices of baked potatoes and roasted. Fantasy, and oh so easy.

This recipe was created for the commission for Idaho potatoes, but all thoughts and opinions are mine.

The beautiful art of domino potatoes

Get fantasy (but not forestry because, no, it is definitely Not part of the recipe) with roast potatoes. Dress the roasted potatoes by serving them as domino potatoes, where the thin slices are removed, allowing each edge to become golden and crunchy while the centers remain tender.

And of course, it seems simply beautiful when I serve it. Really artistic, like that semester in which you thought you would become a good artist and we wore a cap even when it was ridiculously hot.

Because, the thing of the potatoes is that they are fantastic, so versatile and tasty, but they can always benefit from a creative license. A little artistic vision.

Potatoes with mandolin slices

This requires a useful tool though …

A mandolin simplifies the cutting of the slices evenly, but I understand the reluctance of everyone to use one. They can be a little intimidating and even qualified professionals have had accidents. (me included)

If you don’t have one, you may have a food processor that can also make slices of potatoes. Without a food processor, I can assume that you have the preparation skills of crazy knives or that you really want to spend some time in the kitchen.

In any case, whatever works better for you is the way to go. Only make sure to get Slices of uniform size, in particular the height of the width. This ensures that your potatoes blush uniformly. What is the key to the success of this recipe.

Also, while you want thin potatoes in a uniform cup, you want to make sure they are thicker than what you would do for the chips. Think of something similar to the last time you made potato Au gratin. This is the way to go.

Why fatty duck?

If you have never had fried or roasted potatoes in duck fat, this is your opportunity to try the difference. Why Duck? Because it is the closest thing to the goose, which is difficult to find. And because duck fat makes surprising chips.

Cooking potatoes in duck or goose fat dates back to many centuries. Before the chocolate and peanut butter have ever joined the old world as gifts of the new world, the potatoes cooked with the fats of aquatic birds were the game of food made in paradise.

In France, if I cook potatoes in any other type of fat besides duck or goose fat, I’m quite sure that you are asking to be expelled.

In a nutshell, Duck fat makes it at high temperature to clear things perfectly without leaving a burnt oil taste. Every time you can use animal fat to fry things just a better flavor.

If you don’t have duck fat at hand, any cooking fat will do so. Even the high quality (melted and cooled) butter chair or beef works well to cover the potatoes by adding a smooth depth.

Usually you can Find the duck fat in the grocery store But sometimes you have to ask where it is preserved. It could be on the corridor with oils, or it could be somewhere in the meat department.

Tips to get the potatoes of the right domino

When collecting potatoes for this dish, make sure they have all the same size. You want the slices to also go out in portions. Starting from uniform potatoes mitigates any additional structure work.

If you want more crunchy on the edges, allow you to reach the peak of more than each potato, extending the fan from an exposure ⅛ “to ¼”. More than each slice of potatoes that is not hidden under the next, the more it will stop.

If you can make the potato exist somewhere between a brown hash, a paratiera and a baked potato, the best qualities of each, then win.

What to serve with domino potatoes

Domino potatoes are better served with a light cream sauce for a spoon over or with the addition of Asiago cheese sprinkled melted in the last moments of cooking to add one or more layers after the potatoes have cooked and crocketed.

Borrow the saffron cream sauce from this salmon and cream sauce Recipe you need it to try.

And the Litehouse herbs?

Their condiments for herbs are fantastic because they are Liofi and do not contain additives, GMOs or gluten. Perfect to keep them at hand when you don’t have fresh to add a lot of flavor!

Whether you believe it or not, but gluten is one of those things that are painted in foods such as condiments to which people do not pay much attention. With Litehouse, do they freeze the ingredient and guess a little? This is the only ingredient.

The freezing process of the drying concentrates flavors. Yes, you could cut garlic for example. But it will not be so “agital” because there is still very water content. So this dressing is worth looking for.

What to serve with the dominoes potatoes
