Garlic and Herbs Roasted Potatoes
Roast Potatoes with Baking Soda are popular for making crispy and fluffy roasted potatoes. The baking soda helps break down the potatoes' surface and creates a crispy, caramelized exterior while keeping the inside soft and fluffy.
Ingredients:
- 2 lb. potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
- 2 tbsp. baking soda
- ¼ cup olive oil
- Salt and crushed pepper, to taste
- Fresh herbs (optional)
Instructions: -
- Preheat your oven to 400F (200°C). In a stockpot, bring enough water to cover the potatoes to a boil. Add the baking soda and the potatoes. Boil the potatoes for about 5 minutes until they break down around the edges.
- Drain the water and put the potatoes sit for a few minutes to dry. Add the olive oil, salt, and pepper to the pot with the potatoes and toss until the potatoes are coated. Put the potatoes in a single layer and bake for about 33-35 minutes.
- Remove the potatoes and transfer them to a serving dish. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.
