Crushed Heirloom Potatoes
Source: Bon Appetit, January 2005 (Entered by Ann Brown)As with tomatoes, the profusion of heirloom varieties of potatoes at farmers’ markets has helped us rediscover them as a seasonal ingredient in a rainbow of flavors, colors, and textures. For even cooking, choose potatoes that are about the same size.
Serves: 6 to 8
Vegetarian!
Ingredients
2 lbs
unpeeled whole heirloom potatoes
3 oz
crumbled gorgonzola or blue cheese
1/2 cup
pecans, toasted, chopped
1/4 cup
extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups
(packed) baby arugula (other greens ok)
Step by Step Instructions
- 1.Place potatoes in large pot. Pour enough cold water over to cover; salt generously. Bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are just tender, 20 to 40 minutes (depending on variety). Drain. Return potatoes to pot. Using large wooden spoon, coarsely crush potatoes in pot. Add cheese, nuts, and oil. Stir in arugula and toss to blend. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl and serve.
