“Simple but genius.  Grilling the potatoes makes the potatoes very sturdy, they can then stand up to whatever dressing you create.  I love the texture and the char created through this cooking method. The end result for the potatoes was perfect,  I paired the potatoes with spiralized cucumbers and long slices of red onion.” – Peter Block of Feeding Your Soul Too.Find his original recipe here.
