The variety decides how your potatoes turn out: floury potatoes suit mash and baked potatoes, waxy ones are best for wedges and salads. Wedges roast crisp at 225 °C in about 30 minutes when spread on the tray in a single layer.

The most popular potato dishes are creamy potato gratin, filled baked potatoes, mashed potatoes and roasted wedges. Mash turns out smooth when you cook the potatoes in their skins and add warmed milk gradually – cold milk makes the mash stiff.

Potato gratin cooks at 175 °C in about an hour and is ready when a knife slides through the layers without resistance. You can swap the potatoes for sweet potato, which cuts the cooking time by about a fifth and gives a sweeter flavour.

Store potatoes somewhere cool and dark but not in the fridge, where the starch turns to sugar and the potatoes taste sweet. Always cut away green patches and sprouts before cooking.

In Ruokaboksi potato recipes the potatoes and sides come in just the right amounts, so weeknight dinners happen without extra planning or bags of potatoes left to sprout.
