You’ve probably never heard of poached potatoes before, but it’s really just a simple way of adding extra flavor to what would otherwise be boiled potatoes.

Notes: If making ahead of time, cook for 15 minutes and let marinate over night to enhance flavor. Reheat in the oven or on the stove top in the poaching liquid until warm throughout.
