Still cleaning MIL house, found a recipe for "Rosin Kooked Potatoes"
I'm still looking for the "Rosin Kookin Kit", that this came with, printed by;
Atlanta Stove Works. (closed in 1987)
Any reference to cooking with rosin?
Anyway, here the recipe:
Rosin Kooked Potatoes
Place kettle over the fire or directly on the coals and allow the rosin to melt.
When rosin has completely melted, drop clean Irish potatoes into melted rosin and continue to cook until the potatoes rise to the surface.
Allow the potatoes to cook five or ten minutes longer before removing them.
Then wrap the potatoes in individual pieces of wax paper, foil, or kraft paper...twisting the ends securely.
To serve...simply split the wrapped potato and drop in a pad of butter.
Please note.......
* Melt rosin slowly, then avoid vigorous boiling of the rosin while cooking.
* Melted rosin, like cooking grease will burn. Avoid contact with any open flame.
* Wet or real cold potatoes might cause the melted rosin to splatter.
* The Rosin Kookin Kit may be used inside only under hood with exhaust fan.
