Smothered potatoes.

Roast potatoes.

This thread is making me horny as hell!

I love a baked potato with butter and sour cream. YUM

I am part Irish so I think I genetically like them in any form, though I prefer a mashed potato above all. That being said, latkes are missing from this list. My mom's grandfather was a Ukrainian Jew, and my non-Jewish great-grandmother (also born and raised in Odessa) passed down a lot of those Eastern European Jewish foods because she learned how to make them. Latkes with sour cream are fucking incredible. My mom grew up eating them so she sometimes made them for us. My brother and I just knew them as "potato pancakes".

I don’t see scalloped potato's -my favorite.

Where are the funeral potatoes?

Pommes Anna

Potatoes that are fried in duck fat on the stove and then roasted in the oven

Pommes duchesse

Hash Browns Luigi

Sweet potatoes

Tartiflette is delicious.

Roasted potatoes with duck fat wasn't on the list so I didn't vote

Sophie had an easier choice than this!

Croquettes de pommes de terre!

Colcannon

There is nothing like some hot hash brown and bacon and eggs in the morning.

Hasselback potatoes.

Oooh, fancy!

a la Chan

I don’t understand the love for mashed.

The magic only happens when potato turns brown

I thought baked would win. It doesn't get better than that.

This thread is DL catnip.

Vichysoisse!

Racist

A good quality potato with some top notch olive oil drizzled on it, like the italians eat it, is honestly the best. Simple but good quality is always the best way to go.

George Webb's hash browns.

They don't exist anymore, but they had a glorious run.

I voted for potato salad but … it’s not winning!?!? There’s clearly tampering going on! I’m going to storm Muriel’s apartment in the Dakota! STOP THE PEEL!

All the above. I’ve never eaten a potato I didn’t love more than anything else on the plate.

Is...potato.

5, Part-Irish here, too, and I love potatoes in all ways!

But if I'm being honest, the form in which I most often consume them is CHIPS!

But not "Kettle-Cooked"---too hard of a crunch.

I’ll eat potatoes in any form except for canned ones.

This is why I love DL; I had to Google Colcannon. You actually learn stuff here.

You forgot latkes, OP.

Dauphinois is good too.

Potatoes Cuntsuela

𝐎𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐅𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐞𝐬:

Red-skinned potatoes (enough to fill a 13x9 baking pan), unpeeled; cut in half, with the halves sliced into quarter-to-half inch wedges, lengthwise (sometimes called 'the steakfries cut');

1 large white onion, cut in half, then sliced quarter-inch thick;

Toss these together in a large salad bowl. Sprinkle with 1½ teaspoons of salt and a teaspoon of coarse-ground black pepper (sometimes called 'restaurant grind'). Splash with half a cup of olive oil, and toss thoroughly until all are evenly coated and the S&P are evenly distributed. Pour into a metal 13x9 baking pan and cover with aluminum foil. Bake in the oven at 400°F for one hour. Softness/doneness is the goal here, not crispness.

Serve with Pinto Beans and cornbread; sprinkle with vinegar pepper sauce.

I can't believe hash browns aren't more highly rated. Starch nectar of the gods.

I learned something today too, R35.

The link I posted actually has the chef preparing "Champ," a potato dish from Ulster.

Champ v. Colcannon. -- both tasty you bet

French... Fries?? Plural?! I think OP made a typo. Many years ago, I was served a single French Fry. It was spectacular.

r39 Sounds good but you lost me at the pinto beans and cornbread. Are we about to run a marathon? Why are we carb loading?

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Fried potatoes, pinto beans, and cornbread have been a meal in my family going back generations, R44. It's been traditional, and it's delicious comfort food. In the 1990s, the beans and potatoes were claimed to be completing a protein.

Do you raise similar objections to spaghetti and garlic bread?

The thread is about potatoes and their uses. Surely you must be triggered by the entire thread.

After all the knock-out/drag-down fights about Potato Salad on here, I'm surprised it's not doing better in the poll.

Why isn't Potato Soup on the poll?

[quote]R33: I’ll eat potatoes in any form except for canned ones.

There's uses for even those. One can drain the brine, dump 'em in a jar or plastic container, fill it with vinegar, salt, and hot peppers, refrigerate it overnight, and make hot pickled potatoes out of them.

People like mashed potatoes?

They're revolting.

I think the people saying baked potato are lying.

R48 no way…how do they taste?

Twice-baked, please.

I miss my Mom's potato latkes. We used to have a Jewish deli nearby and we would sometimes buy those. If you make them, I suggest frying them in oil in a cast iron pan to ensure even browning. The deli must have put them in a fryer because they were evenly browned and sometimes stuck together.

I didn’t know they had canned potatoes. I guess they for stocking bunkers, submarines and Antarctic research bases.

Oh god. Has it come down to this??

I’ve seen worse.
