Notes
- Chef Notes:
- Make-Ahead: These potatoes are meant to be eaten when they are finished cooking, but you can keep them warm up to 1 hour before serving in the oven, covered with foil at low temperatures.
- How to Reheat: Place the desired amount on a cookie sheet tray lined with parchment paper or in a sauté pan and heat in the oven at 350° for 5-10 minutes or until hot. You can also reheat in the microwave until hot.
- How to Store: Place covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. These do not freeze well as the potatoes will turn to mush once thawed.
- You can try and substitute red or Yukon gold potatoes if you do not have russets.
- Use distilled white vinegar or red wine vinegar if you do not have white wine vinegar.
- Another option to cook these would be to cook in the oven at 400° for 15-18 minutes once you add in the potatoes. Add in the garlic, toss, and cook in the oven for a 4-5 more minutes. Finish the same way that I do in this recipe with butter, salt, and pepper.
