In a soufflé with sweet butter and thyme, mashed house, mixed with milk and nutmeg, in "rösti" or grated potato pancakes, in tarte Tatin with mustard seeds and white wine, in papillote, with chive cream or even in fries without frying, for Christmas the potato is in all its forms.
And all its varieties will be there.
We love the grenailles, these slightly sweet, tender and tasty new potatoes, for the steamed potatoes, to brown, fry and simmer without moderation, for the bintje, ideal in a soup, in a soup or in a velouté and finally for the samba and its creamy and comforting texture, baked, whole, with its skin.
A delicious dish, which will go perfectly with the traditional turkey with chestnuts, juicy and delicious that we all love, or the eternal farmer's capon with cinnamon.
