Just made a baked potato, sour cream was spoiled so I used cottage cheese instead, was pretty good.

Hmm.


Why not?


I use salsa sometimes.

We have substituted Greek unflavored yogurt for sour cream.

Here's a trick for a great baked potato. Use russet/ bakers potatoes. Wash them and dry, coat with olive or vegetable oil. Heavily salt and pepper , bake uncovered in a baking pan at 375 until fork tender .

The oil coating keeps the potato moist inside and the jacket is the best part.

Top with your favorites.

I’m baked tater right now.

Where’s Olsen?
Hi rog!
Sup jimmy rad?

I'm going to try that, Flyer01.

Butter is key

Sour cream spoils? Just scape off the mold, it's fine.

I use cottage cheese to make scrambled eggs. It makes them so light and moist

Try horseradish or wasabi mixed in with the butter it’s very good

yes it was bad.

I've been meaning to try this method, but I haven't gotten around to it yet:

British Baked Potato Method

I hate it that Walmart went to closing instead of being open 24 hours.

I'd use Ranch dressing.

That's a meal about once every two weeks around here. Baked potato, cottage cheese, shredded sharp cheddar, green onions.

Smoke them beside your next brisket. EVO, salt, pepper.

I've used Mayo in a pinch, actually pretty good.

Great.........
Now I'm craving a baked potato with all types of stuff on it.

LOL!!!!

I like to cook a big russet potato by putting it in a big baggie and closing it ‘almost’ all the way up...leave about an inch opened to vent the steam. 5 minutes, then flip the baggie/potato over and do 5 more minutes. Be careful opening that baggie ‘cause that superheated steam will get ya’. The potato is tender and moist. Turns out really good. A big potato takes 10 minutes. Adjust cooking time for smaller ones.
I’ve been putting cottage cheese on baked potatoes for decades, with salt and pepper and garlic powder.

Can't remember the last time I had a baked potato. If we dismiss the carbs, happening very rarely, it is tator tots.

Salsa and pickled jalapenos every time!

no no no


Edit:


Wait, what brand?

Tater Tots and ketchup.



P

Hellman's or Blue Plate only if Duke's ain't available.

I'm on a horseradish kick lately. I'm going to try that.

I'd gain 15 lbs on those and wouldn't even feel bad about it!

I don't know why people smother baked potatoes with all that schit.

Butter, salt, and pepper.

Hellmans for sure.

Find some of this:

& steak drippings too are great.

That's acceptable.

Fo show.

Father in law pours buttermilk on them.

He pours that chit on everything. 🤮🤮



Need to check his 23 and me

Homemade Roquefort dressing.

Got a pic of the ingredient side of the label. Looks like some good scheidt Maynard.

I've got some roots I can use to make some up here if I know what else they put in it.

Hence tator tots. A favorite whilst buzzed in college... With ketchup and Tabasco. Recall shaking a bottle of Tabasco into my roommates eyes not realizing the cap was off. "Dude, s hit, dude"... Yeah central coast of California.

The problem with jarred horseradish is that once opened, it looses its strength rather quickly.

The first time I saw somebody put peanuts into their bottle of Coca-Cola I realized that southerner's have no idea how disgusting they are.

Some beets would be my guess.

I enjoy a good bake potato. If I go to a restaurant I have a choice I will take a bake potato over French fries.

I don't recall that in the early 80's.

I read that label there,

Looks rather "ethnic"

Latkes, brisket.....................I can guess it's likely very Kosher too!

You're probably right because the best versions I've found have been in mazel tov central.

That's why I snort the whole jar.

Gets expensive.

That is how my mom made them, with lots of chives.


mike r

You put it in your borscht you dummies!

Good enough!

I dont eat a lot of taters,

But when i do....



Larry’s twice baked taters.

Economical , easy and good.

You’re welcome.

Next year around Passover I'll look for it next to the Manischewitz wine and gefilte fish. It's about the only time that stuff is in stock.

I much prefer the ones I grow

Looks like you went to the Wabigoon school of photography. 😂🤣🤪

I’m going to have to find some and try it deflave We like to cut a vee out of the top and pack with butter,onion and garlic. Salt and pepper the whole thing then roll in tinfoil and put on the barbecue ahead of the steaks.

Great pics...

hi tech 5 or 6 year old $100 cell phone pics.

The thing sucks, but it's handier to carry around than the Nikon with the good lenses.

Gooood stuff, buddy.

Good stuff.

Someday I'm going to remember to wipe the pocket sweat off the lens before I shoot a pic too.

Wrong

There’s no dead dog in the pic

Lots of Butter ,Little Salt and Pepper works just fine for me

Put some ranch dressing on it.

You're not fooling anyone.

My method is similar. Make sure its a burbank no norkotas. 60 count is the right size. Wash then dry then baste with melted butter then salt. Bake at 400 for an hour to an hour and 15 minutes until fork tender. Slice open and squeeze from the ends to open it up. Add butter, sour cream, fine shredded sharp cheddar, and chunks of hormel cure 81 ham that's been lightly fried until warm. And lots of coarse ground black pepper.

The butter basted on the outside will drip and smoke a bit it the oven but it makes the skin great.

Bb

Yeah he tried on the cheesey poofs thread.

😀

I'm telling you I love those hot Cheetos, no shit.

That's the way I do them. Coat them with olive oil and roll them in kosher or sea salt, the coarse kind. Stick as much salt on the outside as it'll take. I can't tell you exactly why it works, but they turn out great.

Salt draws the moisture out of the skin.

Take a potato.

Warm it up in the microwave after stabbing it with a fork.

Eat it.

Or skip all that work and eat it........................

raw?

After washing the garden dirt off it that is.

Little salt, they eat fine raw.

Baked, butter only. Raw a little salt

I used to love them raw right out of the field.

Sure there's no old school Mic's on here

Excellent advice! (Then there are people who insist on wrapping a potato in aluminum foil and calling it "baked", when it is nothing of the sort.)

Chili with no beans, cheddar, and some sour cream.

Blue cheese dressing

No chit !

Cowboy catchup.

I was ready to compliment your delicious looking offering, but just in time was shown the gospel regarding potato prep and what everyone is supposed to enjoy. Any treatment beyond S, P and butter is dead wrong. Know your place and atone, heathen!

It's the rebel in my 1/4 Catlick Irish Mick Blood. And know you'd eat da chit outta dat.

Butter, salt and pepper- - Rukus..
Fat City's twice baked-- a man's tater!

Roger, You’re one of my favorites here but you’re better than this......a baked potato?.....really? What happened to crashing into jetties and drunken friends shooting at each other over stolen trucks filled with naked ladies?

A baked fuggin potato? 😂

C’mon man....

On a couple levels I'm glad I'm not alone being concerned with this apparent transformation stuff. Fall in with some cat who you've stabbed pigs with, bashed seaducks just outside the perimeter of a nuclear plant, hustled pool in south TX honky tonk, dragged pieces of freshly shot nilgai across endless mudflats, mated on Cape Cod scalllop draggers in January and much more and now he's a cottage cheese spokesperson? Fark man I fear the end is near. Brother Rog' before the world ends you've got to tell the one about getting caught in the sack with that dude's wife and how he cracked your dome open with a heavy flashlight but luckily you were able to slash his face with your trusty carpet knife and 2 weeks later you lads were bonded for life! Por favor, muchacho. Don't throw it all away over a potato with cottage cheese!

I don’t think anybody mentioned coating the outside of a potato in bacon grease and kosher salt before baking.

Muddahfuggah got nothing left to prove.

Lmao, just didn't have sour cream Brother.

KG....I was hoping that you’d join the conversation and confirm that my thoughts weren’t too far off base. I know that the elderly are more prone to be enthralled by minor things and that food becomes their main focus. The adrenaline withdrawal from a lifetime of living on the edge manifests itself differently but the first incontrovertible and truth isn obsessive focus on baked potatoes. 😂

I like them with all the fixings and slices of sausage
