Yukon Gold Potatoes Sauteed In Clarified Butter Recipes

YUKON GOLD POTATOES SAUTEED IN CLARIFIED BUTTER

Steps:

• Place potatoes in a saucepan; cover with water. Bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat; simmer 2 minutes.
• Drain and let stand for 2 minutes.
• To clarify butter: Place 1/2 cup butter in a medium saucepan over medium low heat; cook 5 minutes or until butter is completely melted.
• Skim solids off top with a spoon and discard solids.
• Slowly pour remaining butter out of pan leaving remaining solids in pan; discard those solids. You will have about 1/3 cup of butter (a little more than you need for this recipe).

YUKON GOLD POTATOES: JACQUES PEPIN STYLE

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a deep skillet and add salt and pepper, to taste. Cover potatoes halfway with chicken stock, about 3 cups, add the butter and cover skillet with a lid. Cook the potatoes in the stock until almost tender, about 5 to 8 minutes, depending upon the size of the potatoes. Remove the lid and allow the stock to evaporate, about another 5 minutes. Once the stock has evaporated pop each potato using a ladle or large spoon, creating a small crack in each, but do not smash. Allow the potatoes to brown on each side, another 5 minutes, and re-season with salt and pepper, if necessary or desired. Remove the browned potatoes from the skillet and place onto a serving platter, garnished with the parsley.

RAGOUT OF ROASTED YUKON GOLD POTATOES AND ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• Trim the top 1-inch off of the artichokes and peel the outer leaves off to the tender light green ones. Quarter each artichoke into wedges. If not cooking immediately, place in lemon water to prevent browning. Cut potatoes into four wedges.
• In a large skillet, on medium-high heat, saute the potatoes and artichokes in oil and butter for 5 minutes so the potatoes just start to brown. Add garlic and saute until garlic just starts to brown. Add chicken stock. Turn down heat and continue cooking for 15 minutes. Chicken stock should reduce down to a 1/2 cup. Season with salt, pepper, and parsley.
