This post is more about technique than a recipe. I can’t believe I am speaking to anyone about technique, but I am. I am always conflicted when I post. I have a very diverse group of readers. I have a lot of great cooks that actually take the time to read me, thank you very much. … [Read more...] about Crispy Potatoes
