Tips for Cooking With Potatoes

  • Cut potatoes into even-sized pieces for uniform cooking — big pieces take longer, small pieces burn.
  • Soak cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before roasting for extra crispiness.
  • For the crispiest roasted potatoes, parboil them first, then rough up the edges before roasting.
  • Russet for baking and mashing, Yukon Gold for roasting and soups, Red for salads.
