Maui's hot dog stand serves salty balls to their loyal fans. I saw it on Diners Drive-ins and Dives and made some for the family. Really good and the interior of the potatoes are very creamy and tender. Delicious.
Ingredients
- 3 1/2 to 4 lbs. of small red new potatoes (Yukon gold mini size would work) shopping list
- 2 cups of kosher salt shopping list
- 1 stick of butter shopping list
- 8 cups of water shopping list
How to make it
- Scrub your new potatoes. Set aside.
- Stir salt in 8 cups of water in saucepan until salt dissolves. (do not heat!)
- Add clean potatoes to saucepan of salted water.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Drain potatoes in a colander. Allow them to dry out.
- The salt will crust on the wrinkly potato skin. This is good.
- Heat butter in microwave.
- Serve with potatoes for dipping.
- If you allow the potatoes to get cool, you can heat the butter and roll the potatoes in the butter until they are hot enough for your supper.
