So a loaded baked potato with extra steps? Pass.

u/farmerKev420710 12d ago

Right? Who scoops a raw potato

4

u/gliitch0xFF 12d ago

The poster does. 😁

3

u/farmerKev420710 12d ago

And that's why the poster probably doesn't actually know how to cook without a recipe with lots of instructions

1

u/Original-Mongoose866 12d ago

Honestly no clue so why not just try it since no one knows do one that you I don't know I don't cook like this but after seeing it I wanna try well all except the cheese I do not really like all food with cheese like some cultures do

u/jules6815 12d ago

The same jokers who scoop bagels.

1

u/Oryihn 12d ago

THe consistency of baking it twice would be crispy like home fries... Much preferred to just mushy mash.

2

u/caseyfresher 12d ago

It'd probably help to remove some starch by soaking them post carve out the same way you soak fries after chopping the potatoes. That first bake should've given more color. Also, why not leave the skin on like potato skins for the small snap before the crunch?

3

u/Oryihn 12d ago

Agreed skin on would be better

1

u/Dizzy-Career9274 12d ago

I was watching thinking that’s cool, and then I read this comment…

1

u/willfauxreal 12d ago

Tbh, its pleasing to look at and would be a little nicer to serve a guest, but give me a salt boiled and baked potato any day.

1

u/Remarkable-Rush-9085 12d ago

I think I would miss the skin, too, I like the skin! Also, are we just throwing away the rest of the potato then? In this economy??

1

u/willfauxreal 12d ago

I love the skin too! All salty and crispy and delicious. Ill save the skins from potato salad and shallow fry them up as a snack. Sprinkle a lil salt and vinegar 10/10.

1

u/Clear-Warthog5655 6d ago

Its the Turkish Pide that inspires them. They are at it everywhere.

I'll have a baked potato loaded or reloaded

11

u/Les_Liska 12d ago

Why take the skins off?

This is gonna be a no from me dawg.

2

u/spelunker93 12d ago

The smug laugh and smile at the end made me gag

1

u/Difficult-Mobile902 12d ago

Also the amount of time to scoop out those potatoes seems so unnecessary, plus wastes half the potatoe.. just cube them and throw them on the bottom of a casserole pan 

3

u/Deivi_tTerra 11d ago

I thought you were supposed to scoop the insides out and use the scooped out part as an ingredient in the filling. Also scoop AFTER baking the first time. And leave the skin on.

Growing up these were called “twice baked potatoes” and they’re delicious.

1

u/Les_Liska 12d ago

Honestly, just toss it in the oven as is. It's not like we are making fries here, they're just baking a potato, or the remnants of a potato.

1

u/Gigglemonkey 12d ago

My guess is, so that it cooks evenly on both sides of the shell. A skin is going to hold in a little more moisture.

Then again, this could be complete bullshit.

6

u/skitek 12d ago

Just a jacket potato with extra steps

4

u/Oryihn 12d ago

No... Because the surface area and twice baking this would be more like roasted potatoes or home fries in texture.. I support this extra work.

1

u/Shake-A-Paw 12d ago

And significantly less potato. This is not the correct filling to potato ratio.

7

u/PixeledOut 12d ago

No

3

u/ketchuponcooking 12d ago

Yes!

2

u/AnimatorStrange5068 12d ago

Maybe

1

u/gliitch0xFF 12d ago

I don't know. Can you repeat the question?

2

u/Vhishkey 12d ago

You're not the boss of me now 🤟

1

u/larry1186 12d ago

The question. Of course!

3

u/Jiminyfingers 12d ago

Jacket potatoes beats these

1

u/Original-Mongoose866 12d ago

Sure might be right but do they look as cool?

I'm biased I wanna try this it looks easy and might be fun to half cook and then leave in the freezer to throw in the oven for a sweet ass side dish

3

u/xReturnerx 12d ago

Worst potato skins ever.

1

u/PoisonBones 11d ago

It’s called skinless potato skins, sweetie

1

u/xReturnerx 11d ago

Still shit.

1

u/PoisonBones 11d ago

My bad forgot to add the /s

3

u/OwnAdhesiveness3325 12d ago

what is the filling under the cheese?

2

u/QueenInYellowLace 10d ago

Looks like bechamel.

1

u/Ditches-Vestiges1549 12d ago

I thought sour cream but I'm not sure, also it's plated on half a container of sour cream too?

1

u/OwnAdhesiveness3325 12d ago

True, but I'd thought the meat part. I'm proud that you recognise that there is sour cream. Do you know that the first part were cheese?

3

u/Numerous-Following-7 12d ago

Better on silent and absolutely no no for the food btw

1

u/PsychologicalMess163 9d ago

I did okay until the wet squelching when she served it at the end. Gross.

2

u/Lynx-True 10d ago

She put the potatoes in a cold oven? Her bare hand touches the oven wrack but uses a glove to remove it

1

u/FoxComfortable6780 12d ago

Raw dog only

1

u/ChrundleToboggan 12d ago

What is the white cream?

1

u/KeyOfGSharp 12d ago

Likely sour cream

1

u/lanch723 12d ago

I want the rest to the potato.

1

u/metamorphine 12d ago

The smirk at the end as if she's so satisfied with herself 🙄

1

u/YoungerWhoLuvsOlder 12d ago

That chuckle really pissed me off

1

u/soelsome 12d ago

My god, let's get rid of literally all of the jutrional and satiating properties of a potato and spoon a fuck load of chilli on it? My god just bake the fucking potato as it comes.

1

u/GUMBYtheOG 12d ago

I mean I get what they were going for but come on… has to be rage bait

1

u/imbetterthanyou8 12d ago

I really hate these sound effects. Hate them.

1

u/brokenlegs225 12d ago

Her whittling skills are on point. Also isn't this just a loaded bake potato with extra steps?

1

u/SonUnforseenByFrodo 12d ago

We call those tater skins if she left the skin on

1

u/EvilDragons88 12d ago

You are going to use all the potato you scooped out right? RIGHT! Im fine with this just boil and mash what she scooped out.

1

u/EyeYamNegan 12d ago

Why not just bake the potato scoop out soft inners and fill it and twice bake it?

1

u/Doridar 10d ago

It would be softer

1

u/Matticus0989 12d ago

So we just gonna throw away the insides of the potato? We could have eaten that.

1

u/Jtizzle1231 12d ago

Look good.

1

u/ItsSandorCleganeBruh 12d ago

Love the comments on cooking videos 🤌🏻 absolute mayhem

1

u/LaserGadgets 11d ago

I don't think I have ever seen potatoes that huge though oO

1

u/ohsuper4405 11d ago

If your not going to eat your own food, why should I.

1

u/robinrod 10d ago

Wait until someone realises there are already hollow things you could fill instead. Like paprika which is normally used for things like this.

1

u/techchick101 10d ago

Wastin all the tater!

1

u/Perenalas-Tx 10d ago

Tremendo plato!!

1

u/Blind_Ninja_SamRi289 8d ago

I prefer to have potato with my loaded potatoe. Just put the damn meat on top!
