\"I've made them consistently,\" Garner said. \"Rarely a week goes by that I'm not in [the kitchen] peeling potatoes trying to make them like Emily's. My kids love them.\"

Blunt's potatoes were first featured by one of Garner's close friends and culinary confidant's on an episode of \"Barefoot Contessa.\"

Garten later published the five ingredient recipe online and included it in her 2020 cookbook, \"Modern Comfort Food.\"

\"I read it like a novel, the way you do a really good cookbook and I didn't even know what to make first,\" Garner said on her series about the book. \"Everything in here is exactly what you want to be cooking and what you want to be eating.\"
