Will bake potato bags burn in the microwave?
Comments (92)I have made several potatoe bags, and soup bowl holders, and have only had one person say their bag had a few dark marks, along with a small burnt spot, where one of the seams were sewn. Thinking it was just marks on the fabric, as maybe there had been some food source on the outside of the bowl, and she attempted to hand wash it out, then realised that it was definitely the start of a burn situation. She had placed two potatoes in the soup bowl holder and set it for 6 minutes.....no wonder it started to get so hot and she tossed it into the garbage, Some of the holders I originally made, I used 100% cotton, wrapped with polyester,,,,I since hearing her story make all items to use in the microwave with 100% cotton, fabric, batting and thread, I also include a card to indicate no longer than 2 minutes of cooking time per item. Here are instructions to make a potatoe bag. Cut one 9 x 20 inch rectangle each of the outer fabric, lining fabric and batting. 2. Place the outer fabric and lining fabric, right sides together and batting against wrong side of the lining fabric. Press the outer fabric lengthwise in order to have a center line - see #3 3. On your batting - Using a ruler mark a line across and down from the top at 6" - (use this line so your points will match in the middle at the top of the flap and line up evenly across the bag), and then trim at a 45 degree angle from the center fold, to the outside edge on each side. Stitch around all sides, leaving a 3"opening for turning. Trim the excess batting, and clip corners. Turn right side out, poke all corners and point. Stitch opening closed. You can quilt your bag, before you proceed. Or Not. Fold the bottom up to within one inch of your outside points and stitch the sides, to create a bag. Launder before using your new potatoe and vegetable bag....See MoreWhat Do You Like on Your Baked Potato?
Comments (41)We don't have them very often as I don't really like potatoes. But every once in a while I will make them for my DH and then I load my with waaaaay too much butter and waaaaay too much sour cream. When I finish the potato part then I put butter on the inside of the skin and eat it as well. I don't really like potato but I really do like butter....See MoreCan I make baked potatoes in a Nesco?
Comments (8)I have both the large Nesco and the smaller 6 quart and use the smaller one regularly to bake potatoes, it does a wonderful job. I don't like my baked potatoes wrapped in foil, as they do get "steamed" and the skins aren't nice and crunchy like they are just baked in the oven, so I just rub the potatoes with olive oil or butter, add some salt and put them right on the rack. Remember, the Nesco is really just a small oven, and anything you can do in the oven you can do in the Nesco, from baked potatoes to pot roast. I've made brownies in mine in a pinch, and used it as a bain marie for cheesecake. Here is a link to the Nesco site with lots of recipes, that'll give you a feel for what you can successfully do in it, I think. I will admit that I don't much care for biscuits done in the Nesco, they don't seem to brown well enough to suit me. http://www.nesco.com/recipes/?category%5B%5D=700&submit=Search Annie...See MoreNeed a recipe for oven baked potato wedges I
