tater essentials: tangy baked potatoes

Recipe by

This is an easy/peasy way to serve a wide variety of spuds. For this recipe I am using fingerling taters. Just a few basic ingredients, an oven, and you are good to go. The apple cider vinegar give them a tangy taste, but not overly so. Served this as one of the sides on Thanksgiving, and the bowl was empty when it came back to the kitchen. So, you ready… Let’s get into the kitchen.
