  • Fondant Potatoes are the most amazing melt-in-your-mouth potatoes of all time. The French perfected the technique, and it's not hard to prepare. Perfectly round potato cylinders seared in duck fat and then basted and baked in butter, garlic, and herbs until incredibly tender and gorgeous.

      Good question edie! I've never had duck fat... Somehow I don't think Loon chased down a duck to get it.. .🦆🦆🦆😆 .. Looks yummy!

      We find duck fat at Whole Foods. You can order it online, too! But, if you can't find duck fat, you can substitute vegetable oil!! So yummy!!

    I made these for Christmas Eve dinner. They were delicious. Splurge on a jar of duck fat because it’s worth it. Everyone loved them. ❤️❤️

    Use a tomato paste can. Just cut open both ends. Works great.

    I had these at a celebration of life once & never knew what they were but called them melting potatoes cause that’s exactly what they did lol. Best potatoes I’ve had, really glad this popped into my feed a few years later so I can finally have them again!
