We have recently discovered Rösti and we're totally freaking out over here.
At Surfas' BACON DEMO last week (Chef Amy Jurist proves that everything is better with bacon. Watch as she performs culinary magic with bacon "the Candy of Meat".) We drooled over the yummy treats that were prepared before our eyes. I was frantically writing lists of new tools for the kitchen and products to try (Vegalene, pre-cut parchment paper, Thai peanut sauce...on BACON). One of the recipes made used this potato in a foil bag called Rösti. They sold it there and I picked up a couple. It's just boiled potatoes but it's so yummy and easy to prepare. You open the bag and fry (no oil needed!) for 15 minutes, then flip and fry 6 more. That's it.
Tonight for dinner I prepared a bag with the rest of the prosciutto and some melted cheese. OMG. The taste of this dish took us back overseas...the potatoes tasted so different than what we have here. Must be the water...
