3. Top 12+ Baked Potato Varieties
Because it is so practical and clear, I have added you a table with variants to the herbs and spices.
Ingredient Tips:
Oregano –> Fresh cut into small pieces or dried. Less is more!
Marjoram –> Freshly chopped small or rubbed and dried.
Rosemary –> Fresh needles, twigs or dried.
Thyme –> Add sprigs or pluck off leaves. Alternatively use dried thyme.
Breadcrumbs with herbs –> Creates additional crispy crust.
Colorful sesame seeds –> Press halved potatoes into the sesame seeds, it holds better. Alternatively sprinkle on top.
Curry –> Combine with sugar or glaze with honey at the end.
Paprika edelsüß –> BBQ variant with salt, pepper, chili, lemon zest and optional sugar or honey.
Smoked paprika –> Increase to BBQ variant with smoke flavoring.
Cheese –> Topped with grated cheese at the end of cooking.
Chili flakes –> Fits sparingly to all the above variants.
For gratinating with cheese I recommend Parmesan, Emmental, Gouda, generally hard cheese.
These cheeses can be freshly grated finely or coarsely and sprinkled on the halved slices.
I leave the small potato halves in the oven for about 30 minutes and try one potato.
When it is soft, I sprinkle little cheese on the halves and bake it briefly.
By the way, sweet paprika goes well with it, the cheese potatoes taste especially delicious seasoned with smoked paprika.
