Origins[edit]
Hasselback potatoes may have been created in 1953 by Leif Elisson, a trainee chef atHasselbackenrestaurant onDjurgården,Stockholm.[5]
However, there is a recipe for "Oven Fried Potatoes (Hasselback Potatoes )" in the 1929 "Prinsessornas kokbok" (The Cookbook of Princesses) by Jenny Åkerström,[6]leading to some question as to whether the recipe did in fact originate at the restaurant.
