Swedish version of baked potatoes. These baked potato fans, also known as “accordion potatoes”, were named after the Hasselbacken Hotel in Stockholm, Sweden that first introduced them in the 1700s. They are crisp on the outside, tender on the inside and make an excellent accompaniment to baked cod, and roasted wagyu beef, or simply as an appetizer served with herb sour cream or blue cheese dressing. Potatoes may be fanned in advanced and placed in cold water to prevent discoloring until ready to use. Dry potatoes well before baking.

- In medium bowl, stir together all dressing ingredients except cheese. Gently fold in the crumbled Gorgonzola. Dressing may be made 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Rinse and dry the potatoes. Grease a baking pan with a tablespoon of olive oil. Put each potato, in turn, in the bowl of a wooden spoon, and cut across at about 3mm intervals.
- Brush the rest of olive oil all over each potato, then arrange in the baking pan together with garlic cloves and rosemary sprigs. Sprinkle with salt. Bake the potatoes in the middle of the oven until tops are crispy and potatoes are cooked through, 45 minutes. Serve warm with creamy blue cheese cheese dressing.

These are such pretty potatoes and I've never seen a dressing with them. What a lovely idea Angie. Gorgonzola is creamy goodness.

The presentation is beautiful and they look delicious,yum!
Wowo those potatoes lok so so good and I love that special dressing too.
The potatoes look so cool.
Waw , i love them .
Has to be one of my favorite ways to have a potato, better than baked, better than mashed. (Although I'm quite fond of any ol' spud, as my scales will tell you when I overdo.) I'm always interested in the history of dishes, too. Did I mention I also love Gorgonzola? This is a keeper!
The potato baked in this way is one of those I like; though I have yet to try your dressing, it sounds interestingly different.
What an interesting way of baking the potatoes! Great presentation!
I've always wanted to make hasselback potatoes -- they look so elegant! Yours are lovely with the flavors you used here, Angie!
The photos are jaw dropping, I loved them all. The recipe is great too. Thanks for sharing :)
Beautiful clicks and potato....
The dressing is something I would make and keep around! It has such great flavor and would do wonderfully to zip up a variety of things. Great pairing with the potatoes. Well done.

You had me at gorgonzola! I've done this type of potato before with lemon juice and garlic...the garlic and lemon bake into the potato slices. Such as festive side dish!
The presentation is beautiful and the potatoes look great.
We love hassleback potatoes at our house. I would love them with this gorgonzola dressing! I think my daughter will stick with her herbed sour cream.

Oh, my gosh...how marvelous!!! What a great idea to add a creamy dressing to one of my favorite potato recipe! Mmmmmmm.

I love Hasselback potatoes.. it's only of my favorites! And the dressing... I could eat that with a spoon!!
These sound delicious. We're having a dinner party in a few weeks and although I haven't decided on our menu yet, these might be on the list. YUMMY!
These infamous potatoes look so very good. Thank you for sharing with me today. It is always a good day when I start with a visit to your blog. You know how to make me smile. Much love and many blessings from Austin.
Excellent presentation and looks delicious....yum!
I adore potatoes and cheese of any kind... this looks fabulous!
I often do a baked potato with gorgonzola dressing. I am definitely trying your version - it has more nuance of taste than mine. And from the 1700's? I love the heritage of this!
I've made these several times and yet, have never gave them a gorgonzola spa treatment. Angie...love the ingredients in this splurge ;0)
Ciao for now,
Claudia
I love hasselback potatoes, but have never elevated them with a luscious gorgonzola dressing.
These look amazingly delicious, simple to prepare, and elegant...win, win, win for me!
Can you do this with Rutabagas?
Jim
@AnonymousYou meant Rutabagas radish? I am sure you can cut the root veggie into the same shape, but it wouldn't be the same.
Yum! Those look amazing!
Never seen such good looking potato dish.. Thank you so much for sharing, I am gonna make it today.
