Preparation Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
2. Wash and scrub potatoes and pat to dry. Do not peel.
3. Slice into the potato, but stop about 1/2 inch before the bottom. Make a slice about every 1/8 of an inch.
4. If you need a guideline, take two wooden spoons, and place them on either side of the potato. That will prevent your knife from slicing all the way through (but you’ll still have to be careful on the sides where the potato doesn’t touch the cutting board). This technique causes the potato to fan out and crisp as you bake it.
5. In a small saucepan, combine the duck fat with rosemary, garlic, and Favuzzi salt just until melted.
6. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, place prepared potatoes on top, and drizzle about 1 tbsp of duck fat mixture across each potato.
7. Bake uncovered for one hour. Switch the oven to broil, and allow tops to get a crispy look. Watch carefully to avoid burning the garlic.
8. Remove from oven and serve. It’s great paired with sour cream and green onions.
