Best Way to Store Baby Potatoes Recipes

1. Make sure your little potatoes are free of any blemishes; those will not last as long.
2. Add them to a mesh or paper bag, or a cardboard box, so they can breathe well. Do not store them in plastic bags.
3. Store in a cool location for best results, but do not store potatoes in the fridge.
4. Don’t wash your baby potatoes until you’re ready to cook with them, and make sure not to store them with other vegetables or fruit.

Uncooked garlic butter potatoes last for about 2 weeks when stored correctly.
