Copied! on June 24, 2025 20:47 California, United States I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use. Comments Similar Recipes California Farm Fresh Potato Chips California Farm Fresh Potato Chips One russet potato makes 40 potato chips on the mandolin, each 1/8 inch thick, 3 millimeters, the perfect thickness for crispy, crunchy chips. Takes less than five minutes, in a cast iron skillet, no odor. Oxo mandolins are $46 on amazon. I have had mine for 15 years. I cut mostly by hand, but 1/8 inch thick is tedious. We use canola oil, drop one chip in the oil when we pour the oil in, add the rest of the chips when the test chip starts baking. The oil is refiltered through a paper towel and reused. Hobby Horseman California Farm New Harvest Puffed Potatoes California Farm New Harvest Puffed Potatoes We grow heirloom Idaho potatoes, also called Russet Potatoes, The type is called German Butterball. We make french fries and potato chips. Our Russets can be eaten as of June, but continue to grow oblong to french fry length by September. If you slice any smaller potato 1/4” thick, coat with corn starch and fry the same way you fry french fries, you get delicious potato chip size puffed potatoes as shown in here. Like potato chips with a hot french fry filling. Sprinkled with flaked seasalt, sweet dried red paprika spice or Sabatini truffle zest. #GlobalApron Hobby Horseman California Farm Potato Pierogi California Farm Potato Pierogi An uncle brought this recipe and a lovely new wife back from Poland after the second world war. I make a big batch of pierogi when the new potato harvest comes in, with farm made fresh cheese, a few hours of kitchen work, done once a year. The pierogi dough skin should be as thin and elastic as possible. We like small and large pierogi. This recipe makes 30 dinners of pierogi. They freeze well.
