Back in July, Adrian Villarreal of Rreal Tacos prepared salt-cooked potatoes. They were amazing and completely crave-worthy. He boiled them in very, very salted water until the water all evaporated. Which left a saucepan that would only be good for salt-cooking potatoes in the future (a thick salt crust that didn’t appear to be coming loose any time soon).
