Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

Blackening Spice Mix


cajun

1 tablespoon paprika
2 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 teaspoon white pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1 1/2 teaspoon oregano

If you do not have the facilities to blacken the fish outdoors, preferably on a butane crab boiler, merely melt some butter, dredge your fish, chicken or meat with the above and saute in butter in your kitchen. You will not get your pan white hot as you must do outdoors, but it will be tasty. This process is called "Bronzing". When you blacken, you must get a heavy black iron skillet white hot so that when you put the butter in and the fish, it chars and takes only a minute or 2 on each side. This produces tons of smoke. I did it in my house to see what would happen and my neighbors thought my house was on fire. You MUST have a strong commercial exhause like restaurants have to do this in your kitchen.
