How not to spoil potato dishes

If you're cooking potatoes and every time the dish doesn't turn out as tasty or as successful as you'd like, there may be several reasons for this. One of them is simply the wrong temperature.

The FoodOboz editorial team has identified a few major cooking mistakes that will definitely spoil the quality and taste of potatoes.

If you bake potatoes at too high a temperature, they will remain soggy inside and burn on the outside. If the temperature is too low, it will simply fall apart and turn into a tasteless mess.

Therefore, the temperature should be medium –– about 150-170 C.

2. Time

For each type of potato, you need to choose a specific cooking time to avoid getting a completely tasteless product.

Also, before boiling or baking, cold potatoes need to be heated a little, so they will be much tastier after cooking.

3. Salt
