IPC Announces Winners Holiday Recipe Contest
Following the Idaho Potato Commission’s (IPC) online “Fully-Loaded Idaho Potato Cook-off” event, Kenmore awarded Crystal Schlueter’s unique and easy-to-make mashed-up kimchi reuben tater bombs with sweet onion & Gochujang aioli the grand prize. The poppable hors d’oeuvres balance sweet onion, salty reuben, savory mashed potato filling and spicy gochujang dipping sauce to create an unforgettable flavor experience.
