CRISPY SALT AND PEPPER POTATOES
These crispy potatoes are like little starch balloons that pop when you bite into them. The secret: They're tossed in egg whites before cooking.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment. In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites until foamy (there shouldn't be any liquid whites in the bowl). Add the potatoes and toss until they're well coated with the egg whites, then transfer to a strainer or colander and let the excess whites drain. Season the potatoes with the salt, pepper, and herbs. Scatter the potatoes on the baking sheet (make sure they're not touching) and roast until the potatoes are very crispy and tender when poked with a knife, about 20 minutes (depending on the size of the potatoes).
- Transfer to a bowl and serve.

SALT & PEPPER ROASTED POTATOES WITH A PANCETTA SAUCE
A simple roasted potato tossed with pancetta, onion and garlic, but this is really good and "just a bit different," And yes ... pepper is the key and this is so very easy. You could easily substitute bacon vs pancetta for this, but pancetta can be bought these days at most grocery store delis, and just a few pieces is all you need. A quick saute of the pancetta, onion, and garlic and you have an amazing sauce to toss the potatoes in. One note ... using kosher salt or something similar such as a good sea salt and plenty of fresh ground black pepper really does make a difference in this dish. I prefer to use baby white potatoes for this if possible. Fingerlings would also work or even baby reds - but small whites work best.

Steps:
- Potatoes -- Toss the potatoes with the olive oil and lay flat on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper for easy clean up, or just right on the cookie sheet, and season well with salt and pepper. Make sure that they are well covered with salt and pepper. Bake on the middle shelf at 450 degrees until fork tender. Depending on the size, it will take 30-50 minutes. Once fork tender; remove and and cover as you make the sauce.
- Pancetta Sauce -- Add the olive oil to a small saute pan on medium high heat. Add the garlic, onion and pancetta and saute until the onion is tender and the pancetta is golden brown and crisp, about 5-7 minutes. The pancetta will give off enough drippings so 1/2 teaspoon olive oil should be plenty. Once the pancetta is crisp, add in the butter and parsley. You can add more butter if desired, that is more of a personal preference.
- Finish -- Add the potatoes to a serving platter and drizzle the pancetta sauce over the potatoes. ENJOY!

SALT AND VINEGAR ROASTED POTATOES
This recipe turns the classic potato-chip flavor into a dinner party-worthy side dish. The potatoes get a double hit of vinegar: First, they are roasted in a simple vinaigrette, then are tossed with another smack of acidity just before serving. Use white-wine vinegar for a stronger vinegar flavor, or apple cider vinegar if you want a subtler flavor.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 425 degrees. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, 1 tablespoon vinegar, kosher salt and pepper. Place the potatoes on a sheet pan, pour the oil and vinegar mixture over them, and toss well. Arrange the potatoes cut-side down.
- Roast until tender when pierced with a fork, 35 to 40 minutes, tossing potatoes two or three times during roasting process.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar to the cooked potatoes and toss. Season to taste, and add more vinegar if desired. Sprinkle generously with flaky sea salt and chives, and transfer to a serving bowl. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: For the best results, use a starchy potato like a russet or Yukon Gold. These potatoes will hold their shape better during roasting and will become crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
- Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly. Aim for pieces that are about 1-inch thick.
- Toss the potatoes in oil and seasonings: This will help them crisp up and develop flavor. Be sure to use a good quality olive oil and plenty of salt and pepper.
- Roast the potatoes in a hot oven: This will help them get crispy on the outside. Aim for a temperature of 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the potatoes will steam instead of roast. Make sure there is enough space between the potatoes so that they can all get crispy.
- Roast the potatoes until they are tender: This will usually take about 25-30 minutes. You can check the potatoes by piercing them with a fork. If the fork goes through easily, the potatoes are done.
- Make the pancetta sauce: While the potatoes are roasting, you can make the pancetta sauce. This sauce is simple to make and adds a lot of flavor to the potatoes.
Conclusion:
These salt and pepper roasted potatoes with a pancetta sauce are a delicious and easy side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. The potatoes are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the pancetta sauce adds a rich and savory flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
