Potato Cookery
|

Par frying can save you time. At 225 degrees, you can cook a product in a deep fryer without getting carmelization.
|

Carmelization is good on French Fries though!!!
|
|

Waxy potatoes are the best for roasting.
|

Roasted potatoes have great color and hold their shape very well.
|
|

You can start your Dauphinoise on the stove by cooking your potatoes in cream until the cream begins to thicken.
|

Dauphinoise should always have a nice amount of carmelization on the top!
|
|

Baked potatoes should be hot and alwyas light and fluffy on the inside.
|

Who needs a food processor or stand mixer? We have food mills.
|
|

Once you have potato puree there is lots to do with it. We could add flavor and whip them.
|

Potato puree can be turned into crouquettes... pipe them into long lines on a papered sheet tray.
|
|

After they sit in the cooler to set up, cut them into finger lengths and use S.B.P.
|

|
|

Once breaded you can deep fry them!
|

You could also make duchesse potatoes by piping rosettes onto a paper-lined sheet tray.
|
|

Bake them untill they are firm and golden brown.
