Jacket Potatoes

Anyway, chips were last night. Tonight is jacket potatoes. Oddly, other than the cutting into hunks and chunks, the cooking process is virtually identical. Wash/scrub potatoes, douse in olive oil, put in oven until done. Note when giving cooking instructions, pronouns and like not required. What’s odd is that the end result is completely different.

Roast potatoes complete this strange trinity. They’re cooked the same as the chips, except you parboil (what a ridiculous word) them in between the cutting and oiling step. Again, a totally different eating experience.

I suspect I will write more about the potato before too long.
