Roast potatoes will be crispier and melt in the mouth if cooked in simple item
There are so many different ways to cook potatoes; you can make them into chips, mash them, boil them, or bake them whole. However, one of the most popular ways to enjoy them seems to be roasting them. Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, roasted potatoes are an easy side dish that pairs with almost any meal, but most commonly as part of a roast dinner.
TL;DR
- Baking soda is the "secret weapon" for achieving crispy and fluffy roast potatoes.
- Adding baking soda to the boiling water makes it alkaline, roughing up the potato surface.
- This increased surface texture leads to deeper browning and extra crispiness.
- The recipe involves parboiling potatoes with baking soda for 10 minutes.
- Potatoes are then seasoned, placed on a baking tray with space between them, and roasted for 50 minutes, flipped halfway through.
