The Russet Burbank potato is what Idaho is known for. This potato is commonly used at fast-food restaurants for French fries, but because of the higher sugar content, it's great for simply baking and topping off with butter.
Great for mashing or boiling, the sweet Yukon Gold potato stands up to high heat when cooking.
Scallions are onions that have been harvested early. The mild flavor makes them perfect as a topping on a baked potato or stir-fried.
Leeks are mild in flavor, even milder than scallions, and usually used in stock.
