Salt Crusted Potatoes

[Bearcarver]

Me too Warren, salty is good.
Did you check out the ribs yet?

I know I'd love these, but I can't do it.
My BP last night was higher than ever---Up to 188/108.
I had to jack up my Labetolol dosage.
Back down to my Normal High, instead of Super-High.
Used to eat all the Fat & Salt I wanted until that Dreaded "Nov 8, 2012".

These make a great side for summertime eating. I can't really do the salt anymore but I do make an exception a couple times of year for these.
Here's a little write up of a local company that is kind of famous around these part for there salt potatoes;

I tried this recipe tonight and liked it.
But I wanted more salt as it leaves a very light film of salt.
Regardless, it was good with melted butter and red pepper.

I did his chilerelleno , used the light salted method then let them cool and put on smoker @ 375f To crisp the skin. They come out great.

could taste the salt, I love salt and these had plenty.

thanks for the method.

I like the added Herbs. They sell a Kit here. Small Potatoes with a 2 cup bag of Salt in the bag. A NY thing that made it farther South. They are really good but I want to try the Pan Method...JJ

I've made these in the Instant Pot before but they don't come out as salty as I'd like. The pan method sounds better.
