Fingerling Potatoes Recipes

Fingerling potatoes are small, elongated potatoes with thin skins, creamy flesh, and a naturally buttery flavor. They hold their shape well, making them ideal for roasted potato sides, warm potato salads, sheet-pan dinners, and simple skillet recipes.

Because their skins are delicate and flavorful, fingerlings usually do not need peeling. Their size makes them quick to prep, and cutting them lengthwise creates flat surfaces that crisp beautifully in the oven or a hot pan.

Use fingerling potatoes in recipes where texture matters: crispy roasted potatoes with herbs, garlic butter potatoes, niçoise-style salads, smashed potatoes, or as a hearty base for chicken, salmon, steak, and vegetarian mains.
