New potatoes are small, immature potatoes harvested in the spring or summer. They aren't a seperate kind, just picked very young. The skin is thinner and the pulp is flakier than older potatoes. They come in all colors and varieties.
Traditional New Potatoes are round. The oblong shaped young potatoes are called Fingerlings. New potatoes are traditionally served whole or cut in half, boiled, roasted, or steamed, and seasoned with herbs. They usually accompany hearty meat dinners.
Here are some of my favorite ways to use New Potatoes:
Herb New Potatoes
Lemon-Chive New Potatoes
New England Pot Roast with New Potatoes
Corned Beef and Cabbage with New Potatoes
Meat Loaf with New Potatoes
