so I was trying to reproduce these very tasty potato skin but I am stuck on finding the cheese suitable for them. Most cheddar I found - either block, shred or slice doesn't pull any "strings"and their flavor is too strong. are the restaurants using a mixture of mozzarella cheese and cheddar to reach the string pulling yet have enough flavor? Please advise me which cheese brand or what kind of cheese is the best to reproduce these tasty snacks.

>> No.3968290

It's shredded cheddar, dude.

>> No.3968292

The texture of the cheese, the 'stringiness' has less to do with the actual cheese and more to do with the temperature it's brought to, and the length of time it's cooked.

>> No.3968301

>>3968292
so I might have over cooked them. Does that mean I can just use cheddar only for potato skin recipe?

>> No.3968306

>>3968292

STFU, you pretentious shitposting tripfag.

>>3968301
the key here is to use young, mild cheddar and heat it until you start to see the top of the cheese bubbling and get a little color.

or use basically any other non-crumbling cheese and heat it until you see the same signs

>> No.3968317

>fry the potato skins
>add shredded cheddar
>broil until melted
>top with bacon and green onion

You mentioned the flavor you were getting was too strong, so why not use a mild cheddar? i.e., don't buy sharp cheddar

SHITPOSTER....get out. no one want to hear your cooking fallacies or your idiotic ideas. These are potato skins and OP asked for classic restaurant style, which could mean nothing other than cheddar and bacon, NAO fuck off.

You're a loud moron, but you're still a moron.

There is no single 'restaurant' way to cook potato skins. While cheddar is popular, Monterey Jack, Mozzarella, and even Pepper Jack work just fine.

you're clearly new here, so I'll give you a bit of a 'gimme' - I only really reply to people who post about food. Since none of the words in your last post really had anything to do with food, at all, it would have been disqualified from a reply altogether.

But it's the morning and I'm being lazy, and like I said, you're obviously new here. So, I'll take a moment and spell it out for ya.

Thanks for staying on topic!

/ck/ has a bipolar community consisting of food enthusiasts and bored people.

The food enthusiasts happily swap recipes, relate stories, discuss possibilities, and give each other advice.

The bored people?
Only do one of those 4
>Cool story bro

So they fill the void with trolling.
You do get used to it... The people who are serious, thank you =) So while jerks like that chase you around spitting acid, the guy with stomach pains says thank you for a decent egg drop soup recipe, and the world keeps turning.

"Nametags" don't designate "established leaders of the community."
I've been here longer than this kid, probably know more, and don't need the recognition of having a name.

No, I agree with him. Most places find mild cheddar affordable enough, and 'american' is pretty foul as far as cheese goes.

If Cheddar is the bottom line, american is below the belt.
