This dish is made with heirloom tomatoes, Italian bread, beets and Idaho® potatoes, and is dressed with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, dijon mustard and fresh thyme leaves. It’s a great dish to serve at your next summer BBQ!

The NEW Big Idaho® Potato Truck has hit the Road!
The new giant spud is on the road for its first trek around the country! Weighing in at 4 tons, the fiberglass potato is just as impressive as the original, but with a few minor differences. While the potato is 28 feet long and 11.5 feet high (just like its predecessor), it’s a bit trimmer in the middle (10 feet wide), and 2 tons lighter! If the new potato was real it would take 7,000 years to grow and would make close to 1 million French fries! To find out when the new Big Idaho® Potato Truck is heading to a town near you, visit the Truck’s website.
Oh, and if you are wondering where the original touring tater is, find out here. |

Ask Dr. Potato
Q: I love to make homemade, hand cut French fries. If I cut more potatoes than I need, how long can I keep the excess cut potatoes in the refrigerator?
A: Once peeled, did you place the potatoes in a bowl of water and add concentrated lemon juice or white wine vinegar? These ingredients acidify the water and stop the potatoes from turning gray when exposed to air. If yes, then the potatoes will be good for a day or two.
