ABSTRACT:
Embodiments of a potato-on-a-stick, and methods for making the potato-on-a-stick, are disclosed. The potato-on-a-stick includes a pre-cooked potato, which is prepared by partial baking, an interruption in cooking to cool the potato, and then blanching, which allows a stick to be inserted without breakage of the potato and which causes the potato to adhere to the stick and hold the stick in place in the potato throughout further handling, freezing, thawing, finish-cooking, and eating. In one embodiment, the method of making the potato-on-a-stick product starts with the baking process for potato boats, in which whole potatoes are partially baked, cooled, cut, and scooped-out. The scooped-out potato centers are then blanched and cooled, and a wooden stick is inserted and secured by the adhesiveness of the potato contacting and holding the stick. The invented method produces a potato product which has a secured stick and has an uncrumbly, unbreaking texture and yet a pleasant, soft and palatable texture.
