Pink Potatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Toss potatoes, garlic, Parmesan cheese, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss again until evenly combined.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add butter and heat until melted. Add potatoes; cook and toss until evenly coated with butter, about 2 minutes. Move skillet to the preheated oven.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until soft, tossing potatoes halfway through. Remove from oven and top with parsley.

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes with salt until done.
• Drain into a colander.
• Cook the carrots separately with some sugar and salt until tender.
• Drain into the colander.
• In one of the pots add the butter and melt and saute the onion till tender.
• Add the flour and cook one minute.At this point stir in the milk.
• Add the potatoes and the carrots and Mash together until smooth.
• Add the salt and pepper and some garlic or onion powder if desired.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Wash the potatoes.
• In a large bowl, mix the salt, rosemary needles, peppercorns and 1 cup water together with your hands, crushing the peppercorns a little between your fingers and bruising the rosemary needles to release their sticky oil, making a moist, fragrant and pink-and-green speckled sand. (You might have to add a few splashes of water if the mixture needs more moisture to feel like wet sand.)
• Transfer a little less than half this salt mixture into the bottom of a wide, shallow, heavy ovenproof skillet or casserole to make a salt bed about 1/2-inch thick.
• Nestle the potatoes into the sand, close to one another but not quite touching, if possible.
• Pack the rest of the salt mixture over the nestled potatoes, and rub and brush and smooth it with your hands until you have tightly encased the potatoes in a little salt sarcophagus. The rounded tops of the potatoes will just show as bumps under the salt cast.
• Bake the potatoes for 30 to 40 minutes, until a cake tester easily pierces the potatoes and tests warm on your chin or the back of your hand. The salt casing will dry and harden like clay - and smell delicious while baking.
• While the potatoes roast, prepare the compound butter: Grind the peppercorns in a mortar and pestle with the whole branches of rosemary to create an oily, coarse powder. Remove the bruised rosemary sprigs, shaking off any clinging pink peppercorns, and discard. (You just want to extract the oily flavor from the rosemary, not the needles themselves.) In a small bowl, mash the oily peppercorn powder with the salted butter using a fork until well blended.
• To serve, rap the salt-packed potatoes forcefully on a sturdy surface that can handle it, to crack the salt crust from the force. A few solid raps will loosen the potatoes inside. If the cast needs a little more help, use a regular dinner knife like a spade to just pop open the salt crust along its fault lines. The potatoes are easily plucked from the dry salt. Set out with the compound butter in a small bowl on the side.

Steps:

• Several hours before serving, boil potatoes in salted water until fork tender.
• Drain and cool slightly, then peel and slice.
• Pour Catalina dressing over warm potato slices coating slices well. Allow to marinate in the refrigerator until cold.
• Add onion, pickle relish, boiled eggs and mayonnaise. Mix well and serve.
• Note: Do NOT use "salad dressing" in this recipe.
