How to Use Vinegar in This Recipe
For this recipe, use a combination of white wine vinegar and apple cider vinegar. Roast the potatoes in the white wine vinegar because it has a slightly stronger flavor than the apple cider vinegar. Once the potatoes are roasted, toss them with apple cider vinegar or malt vinegar for extra flavor.
That said, you can use apple cider vinegar for this entire recipe if you do not have white wine vinegar handy.
