  You can't go wrong with USA Russet Burbank potatoes for baked potatoes

  It won't be sweet though. Sweet Variants you have to go with Sweet Potatoes

  
  thanks. that's the prob with potatoes - plain ones needs to be dressed up...else no taste.

  actually cheese isn't that good on potato. I mean it tastes nice, but it's more the cheese that the potato i think.

  absolutely no clue since i don't take dairy products. i made baked potatoes for NYE - guests can choose between either (or both these fillings): chicken bolognese with onions/garlic or mushroom/leek/onion combos.

  Actually why don't you make mashed sweet potato flavoured with a bit of butter

  It taste really great too and these days a lot of chefs are shifting towards making mashed sweet potato instead of potato because of the better flavour profile of the sweet potato

  It doesn't have to be baked does it???

  I mean if there is going to be fillings, it is better to use a normal potato than sweet potato

  Russet Burbank would be good

  It's large enough and it has a very nice fluffy texture. Flavour is mild enough so that it does not change the taste of yr fillings

  I'm not fond of cranberries...but I don't have a choice but to finish them since they were in my bag of berries.

• honeymouse

  Cranberry juice is ok... but don't think I tried eating the fruit....  does it taste tart and bitter?

• Kuali Baba

  8 Jan 09, 08:21

  It's not that different from the juice, especially since I'm eating dried berries.

  I love eating berries just as they are.... fresh.  Those fresh ones taste so much better than those you get in Supermarket.

  BTW, do you want me to get some the QV skin products for your wife??

  In the past we used to be able to pick them in the bush or by the road.  But probably because they are considered as weed due to the thorns, they got sprayed.  Don't come across them in the wild for a long time.  This weekend will be the first time for me to pick blackberries from the farm.
