I am not ashamed to admit that the potato is my favorite vegetable. It has always been so. I would be completely happy to sit down in front of a plate of boiled potatoes, lavishly buttered and sprinkled with salt and pepper and nothing else.
They are such a versatile vegetable. Rich in Vitamin C and Potassium, potatoes are actually quite good for you.
I enjoy them at their very simplest, boiled, peeled, buttered and seasoned simply. I adore them baked or roasted. Fried" Count me in! Mashed" Yes please! Pass the gravy!
This is another way I really enjoy them, especially around the holidays. Danish Glazed Potatoes, or Danish Brunede Kartofler as they are also called.
Tiny potatoes, boiled in the skins, peeled and then cooked again with sugar and butter until they are sweetly coated. Such a simple thing to do with extravagant results!
I love, Love, LOVE these gorgeous potatoes. They are perfect for the holidays and go well with most meats. Poultry, game, pork. You name it, these potatoes are quite simply a beautiful side dish.
