GOURMET POTATOES
This wonderful dish has been a family favorite since I was a child. I think I remember my mom getting the recipe out of the local newspaper back in the early 70's. It tastes like a loaded baked potato to me, only better! It is great for the holidays, especially the 'dairy' ones.

GOURMET MASHED POTATOES (MASCARPONE POTATO PUREE)
This is the way I make mashed potatoes to accompany a special meal. My family goes crazy over these creamy mashed potatoes and no matter how much I make, I never seem to have any left over. This is fabulous with beautiful cuts of steaks. You could possibly sub cream cheese mixed with sour cream for the mascarpone cheese, although I have never made them this way.. There is, of course, a recipe for mascarpone cheese substitute here on Zaar.

Bake, uncovered, at 350ºF for 30 minutes or until nicely browned.
Tips:
- Choose the Right Potato: Different potato varieties have different textures and flavors. For creamy mashed potatoes, use starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold. For roasted potatoes with a crispy exterior and fluffy interior, use waxy potatoes like Red or Fingerling potatoes.
- Season Generously: Potatoes are a blank canvas for flavors. Don't be afraid to season them liberally with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices. For roasted potatoes, toss them in olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika before baking.
- Cook Potatoes Properly: Overcooked potatoes will be mushy and bland. For boiled potatoes, bring them to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender. For roasted potatoes, bake them at a high temperature until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs add a burst of flavor to potato dishes. Try adding chopped parsley, cilantro, or chives to mashed potatoes, roasted potatoes, or potato salads.
- Experiment with Different Cooking Methods: Potatoes can be boiled, roasted, mashed, fried, or grilled. Each cooking method yields a different texture and flavor. Try experimenting with different methods to find your favorite way to cook potatoes.
Conclusion:
Potatoes are a versatile and delicious vegetable that can be enjoyed in many different ways. With a little creativity and experimentation, you can create a wide variety of potato dishes that will please everyone at your table.
