Tastier and faster: how cooks with many years of experience cook potatoes

Agree, sometimes we simply don’t have time to wait for potatoes to cook, especially when it comes to varieties with a long cooking time.

But don’t despair, because the expert of the online publication “BelNovosti”, chef Yulia Arkhipova, has a simple method in reserve that allows you to significantly speed up this process.

All you need to do is add one simple ingredient during cooking. You can be sure that it is in any refrigerator.

We are talking about butter, which should be thrown into the pan at the moment when the water in it reaches boiling temperature.

If you don’t have any butter at home – not white – add vegetable oil, also in small quantities.

As a result, a greasy film forms on the surface.

Thanks to it, the temperature in the pan will be at least a little higher than usual.

As a result, the potatoes will be ready faster. In addition, using oil during cooking results in the final product being more aromatic, tastier and having a light creamy taste.

For reference

Boiling is one of the most common types of thermal processing of food products by heating in a boiling liquid (for example, water, milk, broth) or in an atmosphere of saturated steam.
