  • Place a wooden spoon on each long side of a potato. Cut 1/8-inch slices without cutting all the way through the potato.

Recipe Tips

Placing 2 wooden spoons on each side of the potato prevents cutting all the way through the potato.
The Russet potato skin has more nutrients than the interior of the potato. It is loaded with fiber, about half the potatoes fiber is from the skin.
