Talk to me about potatoes

[HahaBonk]

Dauphinoise, jackets, hassle back are all up there, with croquettes and gnocchi right on the bottom where they belong. Love a good potato waffle when hungover since I’ve discovered you can pop them straight in the toaster!!!

 

[WilmaHun]

Nobody come at me…… mashed potato and ketchup in a sandwich

 

[Peaches_xox]

Sorry @WilmaHun but that sounds rank

Am I the only person that doesn’t know what Dauphinoise potato’s are?!?

Quite simply potato porn

thin slices of potato in a garlicky creamy sauce and just YUM

 

[WilmaHun]

As if you’re all sick reacting me don’t knock it til you’ve tried it

 

[Raininvain]

You need a wooden spoon to hold the potatoes to slice finely.
I like them but they remind me of wood louse

Sounds a lot of arsing about with the wooden spoon, I'd just hold it and then use a sharp knife.You could always put it on a tee towel to avoid it slipping

I'm afraid I don't agree with this at all.

Surely everyone knows that dauphinoise belongs on the God tier and potato salad and jacket potato should at least go on the top tier. Actually I'd go so far as to say that baked potato probably deserves a place on the God tier.
Roasties and chips deserve God tier level and sweet potato fries are definitely in the correct place

Sweet potato, croquettes, roast potato - god tier
Jacket, boiled, chips, and Mash in the top tier.

The rest can go below that

 

[Apple In My Pie]

croquettes, mash, gnocchi - Satan’s own foodstuff

also although it doesn’t quite fit I keep reading the title to the tune of ‘let’s talk about sex’ lol

 

[Saddlesoap]

All potatoes are god tier

 

[Peaches_xox]

All potatoes are god tier

Nah smiley faces are gross and shouldn’t even by classed as a potato

 

[DaimIt]

I cannot even begin to describe how wrong this chart is .
I really cannot . I am on a diet and yearning for poutine with my entire soul.

I'm with you on this one - that's basically a non-crispy butty.

 

[PaintPots]

All potatoes are god tier

Yes!! All hail the mighty spud.

 

[MrsFishandChips]

Forget the covid threads just create a potato one for a real debate
On a serious and living up to the stereotype note I am from Ireland and basically any variation of spud is in the god tier for me
Except for sweet potatoes and them tot things. Dog tit

 

[DCICassieStuart]

I can't believe all the gnocchi hate!

 

[eggbutty]

Smiley Faces taste rank now, they used to be nice when I was a kid.
Alphabites taste like Smiley Faces used to though

Mash is and I love a good roast potato with a slight crisp but fluffy inside.

Aldi Skin-On fries are nice too.

God Tier - roast potatoes, mash, chips, jacket potato (only ever oven cooked not microwaved)
Top Tier - dauphinoise, waffles, curly fries, croquettes
Bin Tier - everything else

 

[Giggling Squid]

living with an Irish stereotype, we have a lot of arguments about tiers of potato

he reckons all varieties of potato are god tier, I do not. Mash and boiled potatoes can get in the bin. As can chunky chips.

God tier is dauphinois, roasties and oven cooked baked potato. Jersey royals covered in butter come close to god tier, except they’re a bit boring

The Irish and non Irish are showing themselves in this thread.

It's not the slipping it's the cutting through and stopping until you're feckin' millimetres away from the base otherwise it becomes sliced potato pieces and on top of that you have to cook it long enough to be cooked and not serve up a hard feckin' potato that looks like a wood louse or armadillo.
In other words it's a hassle
