Make St. Patrick's Day Spud-Tastic this Year
Aside from green beer and the festive parades across the country, March 17 is best known for the food that’s served in celebration of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. The most well-known and easiest to prepare dish is corned beef and cabbage…and potatoes. Add the ingredients to your slow cooker in the morning and by dinnertime you’ll be feasting like a true Irishman (or woman). Other popular favorites include hearty Irish Stew with large chunks of Idaho® potatoes and veggies simmered in beef broth with steak or lamb shoulder chops and we can’t forget the classic Shepherd’s Pie.
May you be blessed with the luck of the Irish all year long! Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Ask Dr. Potato
Q: Do some varieties of potatoes have less starch than others?
A: Yes! Idaho russet potatoes have a high starch content and are considered the ‘gold standard’ in the industry. Other varieties (reds, long whites and yellow) have a lower starch content and are known as ‘waxy’ types of potatoes. Different types of potatoes lend themselves to specific dishes. For example, Idaho russets are ideal for baked potatoes while Idaho red potatoes bring texture to skin-on roasted or mashed recipes.
