Salt-Crusted Potatoes
Recipe courtesy Tyler Florence

Ingredients
2 cups kosher salt
Several turns coarsely ground black pepper
4 fresh rosemary sprigs, ripped in pieces
4 fresh thyme sprigs, ripped in pieces
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
12 small yellow potatoes, such as fingerling or Yukon, rinsed, scrubbed, and
patted dry

Instructions
Combine the salt, pepper, and herbs in a large bowl.
Pour the oil into a large cast iron skillet and set over medium-high flame or

charcoal grill. When the oil reaches a slight smoke, add the potatoes in a single
layer and fry until they get nice and crackled on all sides. Cover the potatoes
completely with the salt mixture, and cook for about 1 hour until the salt forms a
cooked crust and the potatoes are tender. Break open the crust to serve.
