He...Thanks Ashley! :) Potatoes are pretty terrific. Hey, this isn't healthy, and is probably absolutely the last thing you'd want to blog about, but have you tried the frozen french fry potatoes? Quite a few are gluten free- especially from Ore-Ida if I remember. I used to bake/broil them and even though there is some oil it's not as bad as deep frying...<BR/><BR/>from one potato fan to another,<BR/>SeaSeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11058266934256430807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6294724484849605661.post-73820209322179603262007-03-04T21:14:00.000-08:002007-03-04T21:14:00.000-08:00Sea-Hey thanks for the advice!

I'll do it again with olive oil before long-- that sounds even better.<BR/><BR/>Fast food french fries were one of the two unhealthy foods I really liked prior to diagnosis. Maybe someday I'll figure out how to do it without tons of oil...<BR/><BR/>But for now I should bake up somemore potato wedges.<BR/><BR/>Ashley<BR/><BR/>btw- Your book of yum recipes look fantastic.smash.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14608441787630288976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6294724484849605661.post-79877237505132928722007-03-04T15:23:00.000-08:002007-03-04T15:23:00.000-08:00I'm a big fan of the potato myself. :) Have you tr...I'm a big fan of the potato myself. :) Have you tried oven roasting potatoes? There are a lot of recipes out there, and I find they get a really nice texture this way- just drizzle some olive oil on top and add spices to taste and bake on high heat.. Another neat trick is boiling them, letting them cool, and then sauteeing them in a pan in oil. <BR/><BR/>I think the trick a lot of restaurants use is twice deep frying potatoes to first seal in moisture and then increasing the crispiness. You can also try a twice browning technique like in indian cooking- makes for a very nice potato without too much oil. Can you tell I am almost obsessed with potatoes? ;)<BR/><BR/>Happy eating!<BR/>-Sea<BR/><BR/>visit my gluten free blog<BR/>www.bookofyum.comSeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11058266934256430807noreply@blogger.com
