HAY-SMOKED POTATOES<br />

Nettles, everything bagel granola and Philadelphia potato puree<br />

Serves 2<br />

Ingredients<br />

(Philadelphia potato puree)<br />

200 grams Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled<br />

100 grams cream<br />

75 grams cream cheese,<br />

at room temperature<br />

Salt, to taste<br />

DIRECTIONS<br />

In medium pot, add potatoes and cover<br />

with water and ½ teaspoon salt.<br />

Simmer until fork tender. Drain water<br />

and transfer potatoes to blender<br />

along with scalded cream and cream<br />

cheese. Bend until completely smooth.<br />

Season with salt. Keep warm in small<br />

pot covered with plastic wrap touching<br />

surface of puree so a skin doesn’t form.<br />

Ingredients (Nettle puree)<br />

75 grams nettle, leaves only*<br />

5 grams extra-virgin olive oil<br />

Salt, to taste<br />

DIRECTIONS<br />

Working with gloves, blanch nettles in<br />

abundantly salted water until tender,<br />

about 3 minutes. Shock in ice water<br />

to stop cooking and preserve color.<br />

Squeeze out excess water and transfer<br />

to blender with 2 tablespoon of ice<br />

water along with olive oil to make a<br />

smooth puree. Season with salt and<br />

set aside.<br />

Ingredients (Hay-Smoked Potatoes)<br />

4 baby purple potatoes<br />

4 baby red bliss potatoes<br />

20 grams hay, organic<br />

DIRECTIONS<br />

Parboil potatoes in abundantly salted<br />

water until partially cooked, about 8<br />

minutes. This process allows the potatoes<br />

to be seasoned uniformly throughout.<br />

Transfer to cast iron pan lined with hay<br />

and cook over medium heat covered until<br />

potatoes are cooked through, about 20<br />

minutes. Potatoes should be perfumed<br />

with hay. Keep warm.<br />

Ingredients (Pickled potatoes)<br />

1 red bliss potato, skin on<br />

1 lime<br />

30 grams rice wine vinegar<br />

10 grams honey<br />

DIRECTIONS<br />

Bring to boil honey and rice wine vinegar.<br />

Using mandoline, thinly slice potato<br />

into rounds. Pour hot pickling liquid<br />

over potatoes and let sit for 10 minutes.<br />

When ready to serve, remove potato<br />

slices and shave faint lime zest on top.<br />
