Potatoes are like, the best thing in the world, right? [Editor’s note: They’re certainly better than hot dogs.] There are like, a million ways to cook potatoes, and all of them are amazing. They’re universally beloved. Like, I can’t even imagine what a person who doesn’t like potatoes would be like. Like, seriously, can you imagine being such a monster that if you had a girlfriend, and she made Latkes for you, you wouldn’t happily scarf those things down?? I definitely wouldn’t want to be friends with a person like that.
So anyway, all of us who are on the Potato side, the Right Side of History, let’s celebrate our love for this starchy tuber (potatoes are tubers, right?) with a bunch of recipes. We’ve got your Yukon Gold, we’ve got your Fingerlings, you know we’ve got your Russets. Sweet Potatoes? Naw, those don’t count. But you we’ve sure as hell got New Potatoes. By the way, I’m from Idaho and in Idaho we learn that you can survive on just potatoes and butter? All the nutrients you need are in potatoes except for a couple, which are all in butter. Is that true? I’m gonna say yes, yes it is.
