Gordon Ramsay is known for using high-quality ingredients in his recipes. When it comes to potatoes, he prefers using waxy potatoes like Yukon Golds, Red Bliss and Fingerlings. These types of potatoes have a firmer texture and hold their shape better when cooked, making them perfect for pan-frying, boiling or roasting. They also have a creamy texture that works well when mashed or used in gratin dishes. Their natural sweetness also adds flavor to any dish they are used in.
