Best Potatoes to Use
Choosing the right potato matters.
Yukon Gold Potatoes
These hold their shape well and have a buttery flavor. Great for creamy potato dishes.
Russet Potatoes
These become softer and soak up sauce nicely. Perfect if you want extra tender layers.
Honestly, both work great. Use what you have.
