Fingerling potatoes are easy to prepare and taste just like any other potato.

Fingerling potatoes, however, are ideal for roasting.

What Do Fingerling Potatoes Taste Like?

Fingerling Potatoes are very similar to golden or yellow potatoes in flavor.

Since the skins are thin, they do not require peeling before cooking.

They only need to be cut in half lengthwise.

Storage Tips

Leftover roasted potatoes are not my favorite.

They do not reheat well and tend to become rubbery and unsatisfactory.

However, leftovers happen.

Store potatoes in an airtight container for up to 4 days.

Set a rack in the middle of the oven and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Add the seasoned salt, garlic, rosemary and toss to combine.

Return to oven

Finish potatoes:

Stir potatoes after 15 minutes.

Continue roasting 15 minutes longer until the potatoes are tender and golden brown.

Season the potatoes with more salt and pepper if needed.
