What Makes Good Roasted Potatoes?
1. The kind of potatoes used. Use potatoes with a high starch content like russet potatoes. That way you get roasted potatoes that are perfectly creamy in the middle while remaining crispy on the outside.
2. Salt. Potatoes can taste bland if not properly salted. Salt really helps bring out the flavors.
3. Herbs and Spices. Herbs like parsley or rosemary go well with potatoes. Spices like garlic and ginger transform bland potatoes into something incredibly tasty.
For this Easy Roasted Potatoes recipe you could either use a little green seasoning or use a few shakes of dried herbs and spices.
You guys already know I am an advocate for keeping a decent stash of dried herbs and spices. They make life in the kitchen so much easier!
