📖 The Origin of Sliced Baked Potatoes:
Also known as Hasselback potatoes, this technique originated in Sweden at the Hasselbacken restaurant in the 1950s. The signature slicing technique allows for maximum crispiness and flavor absorption. While the original recipe was simple, it has since evolved to include cheese, bacon, and various seasonings—like in this recipe!
⭐ Ashley’s Tips for Perfect Sliced Baked Potatoes:
