TOP SECRET INFORMATION.

Hey. . .we have a secret. . .but you cannot, you absolutely CANNOT tell anyone about this. . .

 

 

So. . .we kind of know the best ways to cook a potato and we're going to share them with you. . .

 

 

But as I said before, you CANNOT tell anyone! Because who knows what kinds of trouble we'll get into when others find out that we enjoy eating our own kind. . .

 

 

Now that we have a clear understanding of each other, it's time to tell you the two best ways to cook a potato! Oh and please, please, make sure that you wear proper mittens and goggles as well as adult supervision during this process because cooking can be quite dangerous.

 

 

Method #1: Baking a Potato (after all who doesn't love a classic baked potato)

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F/150 degrees C ( this will ensure that the potato will be fully cooked and will not fight you on the way to your mouth)

Step 2: Wash the potato (even though we potatoes are quite hygenic there are those few who don't take care of themselves so well and eating them can make you sick)

Step 3: Rub the potato with olive oil and salt (at least pamper the potato before you do cruel things to it)

Step 4: Place the potato in the oven until it is soft and a golden brown in colour (that's when it's safest to eat)

Step 5: Slice the potato down the centre and add butter, black pepper, and shredded cheese over it (now this step is for you, this is how you get the potato to its highest yummy potential)

 

 

Method #2: Making a Poutine (because who doesn't love potatoes as convenient little sticks)

P.S. this method has similarities as the first so some steps will not be explained

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F/ 218 degrees C

Step 2: Wash the potato

Step 3: Cut the potato into strips (whatever size you want, this is your time to shine and be creative)

Step 4: Scatter potato strips on a tray and place in oven until golden brown then flip and wait until this side turns golden brown (you have to make sure that both sides are the same colour because if you dont then you're rude and no one likes rude people)

Step 5: Take potato strips out of oven, place in a bowl and pour poutine sauce and cheese curds on top (this dresses up the potato so it will look extra fancy, like us, and this also benefits you for it is super yummy)

 

 

So we hope that you try these potato cooking methods and remember. . . THIS IS A SECRET. SO SHHH. OR ELSE YOU MIGHT FIND YOURSELF TURNED INTO A MASHED POTATO WHEN YOU WAKE UP. 

 

P.S. the last part about turning you into a mashed potato was joke, we're not cruel, we just want to make sure that you can keep a secret
