How to Cook Baby Potatoes
Time Saving Tips for Cooking Potatoes
Our baby potatoes are versatile and can be prepared any way you like to make a nutritious and convenient dish. There is no need to wash or peel our potatoes before cooking. Tasteful Selections® products are pre-washed, with most varieties being triple washed. Their skins are very thin and taste great, so use them in any potato recipe with the skins on. Cook times are approximate and may vary based on the bite-sizes.
*Nibbles are the world’s smallest potatoes! Since these are uniquely tiny, you will want to reduce cook time by approximately 5 minutes when cooking Nibbles.
Air Fry Potatoes
In a bowl, combine potatoes, a small amount of oil and desired seasonings. Cook at 400° for 15-20 minutes, shaking after 10 minutes.
Boiled Potatoes
Bring potatoes, water, and one-teaspoon salt to a boil in covered pot. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook 10-15 minutes. Drain water.
Grilled Potatoes
Heat grill to medium-high heat. Place potatoes on grill and turn often to ensure even browning. To speed up the grilling process, parboil the potatoes before grilling.
Microwave Potatoes
Place potatoes in microwave-safe bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Cook 5-8 minutes, stirring once. You may hear normal popping noises as some of the potatoes will “pop” out of their skins.
Note: Microwaving is NOT recommended for Nibbles because of their small size.
Pressure Cooker Potatoes
Add potatoes and one cup water to pressure cooker. Cook on Manual high pressure for 6-8 minutes, then quick release. If desired, turn to sauté mode to brown slightly.
Roasted Potatoes
Preheat oven to 425°. Place potatoes on rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Place baking sheet on middle rack and roast for 20-25 minutes.
Sautéed Potatoes
Cut or slice potatoes. Heat oil in skillet. Add potatoes and sauté over high heat, stirring frequently. To speed up the sautéing process, parboil the potatoes until tender before sautéing.
Slow Cooker Potatoes
Add to any slow cooker recipe right with your meat and follow recipe for cook times. Tasteful Selections® baby potatoes hold up well in slow cooker.
Steamed Potatoes
Place vegetable steamer in pot, add water underneath and bring to a boil. Add potatoes and steam 12-15 minutes.
