Cut potatoes into evenly sized pieces (or leave small ones whole).
Place them in a steamer basket over simmering water, cover, and steam for 15–20 minutes, or until fork-tender.
Use for mashed potatoes, salads, or casseroles.
2. Microwave Them
Why It Works : Microwaving is quick and efficient, and it keeps the potatoes’ moisture intact.
How to Do It :
Wash and prick whole potatoes with a fork.
Place them on a microwave-safe plate and cook on high for 5–8 minutes, turning halfway through.
Perfect for baked potatoes or smashing into crispy smashed potatoes.
3. Roast Them Whole or Chopped
Why It Works : Roasting caramelizes the natural sugars in potatoes, creating a rich, flavorful result.
How to Do It :
Toss whole or chopped potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 30–45 minutes, depending on size, until golden and tender.
Great for side dishes or adding to grain bowls.
4. Cook Them in Broth or Cream
Why It Works : Cooking potatoes in broth or cream infuses them with flavor while they soften.
