    Valentina! I saw your beautiful recipe for Salt Potatoes http://cookingontheweekends.com/2011/08/salt-potatoes-with-fresh-dill-and-mascarpone/ — I definitely want to try boiling them next :) I bet beets would be out of this world.

    in the absence of a potatoe tool I’m using a plastic bag putting the potatoe in it after cooking, wrapping a thick towel around the potatoe then squeezing/massaging the potatoe till soft not breaking the skin, placing the potato on a plate and opening a top place in the skin over which I pour a dressing, butter, sour cream, or even flavored water.

    Sounds like a great plan! Using a fork in place of the popper helps too! Enjoy :)
