    How has no one said a loaded baked potato.

    Large large potato Stuffed with shredded chicken or pulled pork, bacon, sour cream, cheese, and chives, then bbq sauce or some hot sauce.

    That’s perfect use for a potato.

    Twice-baked potatoes. Bake them, lay them on the side, slice the top off, scoop out the potato while leaving the skin intact like a little boat. Mash the spuds with butter, sour cream, seasoning salt, cheese, and bacon bits (scallions too if you like them - I don’t), scoop back into the potato, shred more cheese on top, bake until melted.

    Perfection.

      In taiwan they bake them, mash them, sculpt the mash into a potato shape, bread that, fry it, cut that open, then serve it with some combo of broccoli, corn, pineapple, shrimp, oyster mushroom and always swimming in an inch of nacho cheese.

    Food aside, I’ve used disposable spoons/forks/knives made of potato as a plastic alternative. Unlike pretty much every similar product that has a weird taste/texture or shit durability, the potato ones were pretty much indistinguishable from plastic except that the texture was kinda higher traction if that makes any sense. Like it’d kinda grab your lips a bit as they were sliding across a spoon, vs the plastic version is slightly less friction.

    But, you stop noticing that after like the third bite.

    Haven’t seen them used in years, so no idea if they’re still being produced, but it seemed like a golden standard to replace plastic the few times I used it.

      That’s a thing?? Whoa. The wooden ones SUCK, plastic is alright but plastic… how are the potato ones to clean? One of the nice things about the plastic ones is you can clean them and keep them around in your bag for next time you need a spoon.

        No idea. I think the pitch was for them to be biodegradable in a fairly short timespan, so I’d guess they don’t hold up well to sustained moisture. If you washed them immediately after using and then dry them off, you could probably get some reusability out of them. They’re not like that horrible paper shit that starts falling apart mid-use, but only ever used them after they were provided when ordering takeout - used em once and threw them out.

      Is this cut after/during baking or before? I want to eat this right now.

        Personally I would deep fry it rather than bake it, but to each their own

      Do you cut it before, after, or mid way through cooking?

        I’m guessing here, but if I wanted to make this, I would par-bake the potato @ 350°F / 180° C for about 10-15 minutes, freeze it, then cut, then deep fry for 3-7 minutes.

        Looks delicious however they did it.

        Edit: https://www.allrecipes.com/bloomin-potato-recipe-11893783

        They used a microwave and conventional oven. Also they cut it first.
