A<\/span>ccording to the International Potato Center in Lima, Peru (which has preserved almost 7,000 varieties of potatoes), \u201cMore than a billion people worldwide eat potatoes, and global crop production exceeds 300 million metric tons.\u201d Originating from the Andes region in Peru and Bolivia, potatoes became one of the world\u2019s most important crops when the Spanish conquistadors brought them back to Europe in the 16th century and to the American colonies in the 17th century. Potatoes grow best in mountainous areas and can thrive up to 15,400 feet above sea level; it\u2019s no wonder that Alpine-style cheeses pair so well with spuds.<\/p>\n

Potatoes range from starchy (think russets) to all-purpose (think Yukon Gold) to waxy (think red potatoes and fingerlings). These textural differences are due to the respective amounts of floury, drier amylose starch and watery, firmer amylopectin starch present in the tuber. We\u2019re here to help you navigate the many popular preparations for potatoes and cheese.<\/p>\n

Gratin<\/h3>\n

Is there anything more alluring than thinly scalloped potatoes delicately layered with creamy sauce and gooey cheese? While some recipes call for starchy russet potatoes, we recommend Yukon Golds. Choose younger, melty cheeses like a triple cr\u00e8me from France, or something with a more savory bite, like peppery Caprotto from Italy.<\/p>\n

Fries<\/h3>\n

Dense, high-starch russets make for the crispiest fries. Smother fries with gravy and a salty, rich cheese for poutine; or melt a young, buttery cheese on top for the most decadent cheese fries.<\/p>\n

Roasted<\/h3>\n

The best roasted potatoes boast crispy exteriors and delicate interiors\u2014Yukon Golds achieve both desired textures. Though fingerling potatoes are waxy, they too can yield the same results when roasted with an initial steam. Shave sharp, nutty cheeses over roasted potatoes for a delectable contrast.<\/p>\n
