Blue Potato Baked Fries

Posted on January 24, 2012 by Luke

As we gear up for the Superbowl, we wanted to try out some finger food recipes using only homegrown ingredients.

We sliced these blue potatoes nice and thin to resemble traditional ‘fries’ and expose their beautiful interior color.

We loaded them up with plenty of herbs: rosemary, thyme, parsley and sage, then drizzled with olive oil.

The result was simply delicious. Blue potatoes really have a great flavor on their own, so there’s no need to overload with salt or deep frying.

Got any interesting homegrown finger food recipes we should try?

It’s been over 2 months since the Halloween blizzard and there is finally some snow accumulation in Western Mass. Not that we were holding out for it, but it’s always nice to experience the true aspects of winter time.
