"I have found that if you rub kosher salt into the potatoes before baking, you can brush it off afterwards and the potatoes still have a nice salty flavor. Saves on the actual salt intake."

Made as per recipe and served as is but can certainly see this as the basis for the imagination to go wild and stuff with what ever to take it beyond a simple side to something more substantial such as coleslaw, or baked beans or your favourite salsa and it could still remain a side your call. Thank you Puppitypup made for Alphabet Soup tag game.
