Remember those pink salt blocks everyone was searing steaks on for a minute? A bit of kosher salt performs a similar function: transmitting heat.
Ingredients
Serves 4
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F. Spread kosher salt in a 13x9" baking dish. Scrub potatoes, pat dry, and poke a few holes into each; arrange over salt. Roast until flesh is very tender and skins are crisp, 30–40 minutes.
Step 2
Meanwhile, strip leaves from rosemary sprigs and cook with garlic and oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, swirling pan occasionally, until garlic is golden, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and add potatoes; toss to coat. Serve potatoes generously sprinkled with sea salt.
