OLD-FASHIONED STEWED POTATOES

BAKED POTATOES WITH ONION SOUR CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prick potatoes in several places with a fork. Place on a baking sheet, and bake until easily pierced with the tip of a knife, 50 to 60 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make onion sour cream: In a 10-inch skillet, heat oil over medium-low heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl; cool to room temperature.
• Add sour cream to onion; mix to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
• Cut a deep cross in the top of each potato; push ends together to open. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon some onion sour cream over each potato, and sprinkle with chives. Serve.

SOUR CREAM AND ONION POTATO SALAD

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a large pot and pour in 3 qt. water to cover. Add 1 cup salt and bring water to a boil over medium-high heat. (Yes, this is a lot of salt, but it's the right amount to ensure potatoes are seasoned through and through.) Reduce heat and simmer, adjusting heat as needed, until potatoes until fork-tender, 15-20 minutes. Scoop out ½ cup potato cooking liquid and set aside. Drain potatoes in a colander and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, onion powder, mustard, and pepper in a large bowl and mix well to combine. Add garlic and half of chives and mix just to incorporate.
• Place red onion in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse for several seconds to take away some of its raw bite. Pat dry with paper towels. Mix half of onion into dressing; set aside remaining onion for serving.
• Working one at a time, set potatoes on a flat surface and crush slightly with the palm of your hand. Add to bowl with dressing along with ¼ cup potato cooking liquid. Do this while the potatoes are still warm so that they can absorb all of the seasoning. Don't worry if the dressing looks a little loose and watery at the beginning-it will all get absorbed and become creamier as it sits. Taste and season with more salt or, if your dressing looks too thick, a splash of potato cooking liquid.
• Top potatoes with remaining chives and reserved onion and crumble potato chips over.

SOUR CREAM AND ONION MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• In a stockpot or pasta pot, bring about 2 gallons of water to a boil with a palmful of salt and a splash of oil.
• Meanwhile, set a large frying pan over high heat, then coat the bottom of the pan with oil. Add the onions with a pinch of salt and cook, working in batches if necessary, until browned, about 2 minutes. Return all the onions to the pan, then turn the heat to medium-low and cover. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the onions have turned a deep golden color, about 20 minutes.
• Peel the potatoes and cut into 1-inch chunks. When the water has come to a full boil, add the potatoes. Cook, uncovered, until easily pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.
• Using a potato masher or large whisk, begin to break down the potatoes. Add the sour cream, milk and butter and continue to mash until the desired consistency is reached. Season to taste with salt. Add the caramelized onions and chopped chives and mix well. Place in a large serving bowl and cover with foil to keep warm. Sprinkle with additional chives and crushed potato chips right before serving.
