Here’s a quick technique of the day! If you have a mandolin (a very handy kitchen tool that I highly recommend), then you can create these beautifully cut potatoes. Also referred to as gaufrette, this cut is a lovely way to present foods in way other than simply slicing.

It’s also fun to do with carrots! Serve them raw with an herb yogurt dipping sauce. Thanks, Melissa, for your lovely photo.
