This full-color cookbook features a collection of 77 of restaurateur Allen Dikker’s favorite recipes that he wasn’t able to feature on the menu of his potato-centric restaurant, Potatopia. In what has been dubbed a “cult-like following” by Food & Beverage, Dikker’s Potatopians include foodies, vegans, vegetarians, families and everyone in between. Now, home cooks can experience potato heaven from their own kitchens with these exclusive recipes pulled from the over 200 that Dikker has developed since Potatopia’s inception. As CEO and founder of the chain, Dikker has earned his authority on all things potatoes.
This cookbook is organized into six chapters by course: Starters and Snacks; Soups and Salads; Mains; Meatless Mains; Sides; and Sweets. The book also includes two bonus sections for basic potato recipes and Potatopia’s signature sauces—both of which are used throughout the book.
The Potatopia Cookbook includes the following recipes, among many others:
- Sweet and savory maple-glazed potato chips with bacon
- Sushi tuna and salmon tartare chips
- Ultimate blue cheese potato gratin
- French onion soup with crispy potato galettes
- Roasted sweet potato, hazelnut and apple salad
- Potato-crusted sausage and Gruyère quiche
- Potato-, mascarpone- and mushroom-stuffed crêpes
- Sweet potato blondies with vanilla ice cream and hazelnuts
- Sweet potato cobbler
- Potato gnocchi
Allen Dikker has launched five successful businesses, including Potatopia, a fast-casual all-potato concept with locations in New Jersey, New York and Florida. As CEO, Dikker developed Potatopia’s menu of signature potato recipes and sauces. He lives with his family in Manalapan, N.J.
