Q&A: Center of the Plate Potatoes

I noticed that the CIA (Culinary Institute of America) in St. Helena recently held a nutrition conference called Produce First! Any thoughts on how I can make potatoes more center of the plate?

This is an easy one. First of all, many chefs develop recipes for the protein to be placed right on top of potatoes. Below is a list with links to some delicious examples!

Recipes from top to bottom, left to right:

Idaho® Potato Crusted Red Snapper with Potato and Brussel Sprout Hash
Tenderloin of Beef with Roasted Shallot Idaho® Potatoes and a Merlot Reduction
Homemade Idaho® Potato Gnocchi – Bolognese
Golden Coins Topped with Country Mashed Idaho® Potatoes
Idaho Potato Cake Benedict

The Idaho Potato Commission

Established in 1937, the Idaho Potato Commission (IPC) is a state agency that is responsible for promoting and protecting the famous "Grown in Idaho®" seal, a federally registered trademark that assures consumers they are purchasing genuine, top-quality Idaho® potatoes. Idaho's ideal growing conditions, including rich, volcanic soil, climate and irrigation differentiate Idaho® potatoes from potatoes grown in other states.
