The history of Parmesan Roasted Potatoes with added garlic and herbs can be traced back to the rustic kitchens of Italy. This dish combines the earthy flavors of potatoes with the savory richness of Parmesan cheese, the aromatic essence of garlic, and the fragrant touch of herbs. Renowned chefs in the Emilia-Romagna region, such as Massimo Bottura, have elevated this humble dish to gourmet status by infusing it with their culinary expertise. The best version of this dish can be found in traditional Italian trattorias, where the potatoes are roasted to crispy perfection and then tossed with a generous amount of Parmesan, garlic, and fragrant herbs like rosemary and thyme. The key to getting this dish right lies in achieving the perfect balance of flavors and textures, with the potatoes being crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the Parmesan, garlic, and herbs adding layers of savory and aromatic notes. For a famous alternative method, some chefs recommend parboiling the potatoes before roasting them to ensure a fluffy interior and a crispy exterior.
