Canadian Jacket Potato

4 servings

60 minutes

Canadian-style baked potatoes are a simple yet surprisingly delicious way to prepare young potatoes, rooted in North American traditions. This method preserves the natural flavor of the potatoes while adding a salty crust formed during slow evaporation of water. Sea salt enhances the taste and highlights the tender texture of the tubers. Fragrant dill completes the dish with fresh herbal notes. It is perfect as a standalone snack or a side dish for meat and fish dishes, especially in summer when young potatoes are particularly tasty.
