I like SP's , but in the past rarely got them unless

 

"" Turkey Dinner "" was on the menu.

 

I baked in the CSO the other evening :  400 F Steam , 40 minutes

 

skin was very crunchy , but I was way disappointed in the ' flesh "  :

 

it was watery and seemed way over cooked.  the potato also ' leaked ' while baking

 

even though I gave it several jabs w a knife to keep it from exploding

 

this SP had a light skin , but deep yellow orange flesh.

 

there are SP here that have darker skin , almost orange , but I cant say if

 

the flesh is dark orange or a much lighter color.   I know Ive gotten Sp's in the past

 

the had lighter flesh , but prefer the darker flesh.

 

so :  

 

I have two more SP's of the same variety .    Im thinking 350 F steam , 30 min

 

then check w a knife ?

 

P.S.:  here is a fair color rendition of the SP's involved.  although the cutting board

 

has a fair amout of orange/yellow in it , these are what the SP's look like :

I was mistaken thinking the skin was lighter colored.  the flesh is dark orange

 

there might be a version in buy markets w lighter skin, but I cant recall

 

and I rarely go to the market , and only on Blitz Speed , no warping or

 

dilly dallying.

 

P.P.S.:  one last thought :  what about slicing in 1/2, lengthwise 

 

and baking 350 ro 30 min , bake-steam CSO ?

 

or even , scacre-blue !  conventi0onal bake ?

 

looking for crisp skin , some firmness lest in the flesh , not watery .

 

many thanks.
