Potatoes

This year we have a variety of potatoes growing in the garden including French fingerlings, Russett Burbank, Yukon Gold, and Red Lasota.  Each of these potatoes offers it's own unique cooking possibilities.  The Russett makes for a great baker and masher.  The Red Lasota is wonderful as a boiled baby potatoe.  The Yukon Gold is multi purposed as a boiler, roaster, and sometimes masher.   The French Fingerling is an outstanding roasted potatoe.
