Loaded Hasselback Baked Potatoes

Loaded Hasselback Baked Potatoes

"What I can explain, however, is how freakin’ delicious these Loaded Hasselback Baked Potatoes are! The name comes from the Hasselbacken restaurant in Stockholm, Sweden where a chef invented this unique concept for baked potatoes. Instead of just stabbing the potato with a fork a bunch of times (which I find to be oddly fun), you slice the potato into thin slices before it gets baked. But here’s the thing about hasselback potatoes. You don’t actually slice the potato all the way through. The slices only go about 3/4 of the way through the potato. As that spud bakes and softens up, the potato opens up like a beautiful daffodil on a warm spring day. (I could’ve said it opens up like a Venus Fly Trap, but that isn’t quite the visual we want, is it? I personally don’t like when my food tries to eat me.)"
