Do you cook the potatoes in the oven --> boil --> oven again?
Hi! I'm confused. Do you roast the potatoes at 350 in foil, then unwrap them, slice and boil, and then roast them again? I feel like that would overcook the potatoes, no?

Maybe look for a similar recipe from a trusted site/author or one that’s been made and like by home cooks.
For example, Bon Appetit has two Cacio e pepe recipes for potatoes, one regular and one rosti format.
My guess is that "Tightly wrap the potatoes" should be "Tightly wrap the garlic bulb" in step 1.
Moreover step 2 begins with you washing the potatoes which one wouldn't do after they had been baked.
At some point a Food52 staffer will probably fix it. Anyhow, enjoy the recipe regardless of its current state.
When I roast garlic, I don't wrap in foil, I just put them in the oven uncovered (sprinkled with salt and drizzled with olive oil).
If you were to roast the potatoes, you'd wash them *first*, not after they had been baked.
Wait until there's some clarification from the Food52 staff.
