Todd: We like to use red bliss potatoes because they are less starchy than russets or Idahos, and therefore caramelize well, so they lend themselves perfectly to roasting You can substitute with low-starch potatoes, like Yukon Golds or fingerlings. Cloves of garlic cooked in their skins add an interesting element to the dish (if you peel them, they would burn). If you press down on the sides of them with the side of your forks, the flesh should pop out easily. Eating a bit of roasted garlic with each bite of potato is just a delight.
