I love the Basic Mitch series. Babe gets all the fancy recipes we then copy, while Mitch is where Andy can show us all how to elevate our cooking skills. Fantastic!

[@botezsimp5808]

I approve.

Baked potatoes. Great

I think Mitch is the ideal guy to test different kind of stampots on.

[@thehappyapy]

My favorite tip for baked potato is to roll it around and massage it after the bake but before you cut it open. It makes the flesh inside crazy fluffy and light.

[@elrey8876]

BACK IN THE 90'S there used to be mobile ovens at weekend markets in Queensland, that sold baked jacket potatoes. They'd split them open piping hot, and slather on butter, sour cream, diced beetroot, shredded cheese, and savory mince if you wanted that extra. So... damn... good!

[@TwoCowzBrowze]

in Germany back in the 90's they sold those on the street too !

@@TwoCowzBrowze Wow that's awesome. You have so much good food and beer in Germany. I lived there for four years and miss it. The wurst were so good that I can never enjoy sausages here in Australia again. Kalbsleber, Rindfleisch mit meerrettich, the best doner kebabs I've ever had...

[@m.c.2899]

I have a similar story: I'm Hungarian and live in the US. When I visited a Hungarian family in Sydney and attempted to speak English with them, I couldn't understand what they were saying, so we had to continue in Hungarian. Then, my second story is when I came back. I called a magazine in Australia because I wanted to place an order. (This was before the days of internet. ) I couldn't understand anything out of the conversation, so I wrote them a letter requesting a yearly subscription.
