Don’t underestimate these little gems, fingerling potatoes pack big flavor and endless versatility. ⁠

Crispy roasted, smashed with herbs, or served as a side, their buttery texture and earthy sweetness make them the perfect complement to any dish.⁠

Chefs love them for their vibrant color, unique shape, and ability to withstand high heat. Ideal for roasting, grilling, or pan-frying. 🔥⁠

Serve them alongside seared fish, steak, or as a rustic base for seasonal veggies.

Sweet, nutty, and versatile butternut squash is the ultimate autumn ingredient. 🍂

Roast it, puree it, stuff it, or spiralize it — there’s no wrong way to let it shine. Chefs, think cozy soups, rich risottos, roasted sides, or creamy pastas that bring all the fall flavor your guests are craving.

Pro tip: pair it with brown butter, sage, or a touch of chili for the perfect balance of sweet and savory.

How are you featuring butternut squash on your seasonal menu?
