The latest wave in potato salads is baked potato salad, made with baked instead of boiled potatoes (it’s a great repurposing of leftover baked potatoes).

At the recent 2011 South Beach Wine & Food Festival, Baked Idaho Potato Salad took top honors in the Idaho Potato Side Dish Challenge.

The recipe was created by Chef Carlos Barillas of the Burger & Beer Joint in Miami Beach.

Chef Barillas was one of 12 chefs who battled it out on the beach for a good cause: education. The Idaho Potato Commission made a $5,000 donation to Florida International University’s School of Hospitality and Tourism Management in Barillas’ name.
