What is “moloda kartopelka” in Ukrainian cooking?

Молода картопелька (moloda kartopelka) is the Ukrainian “young new potato,” the thin-skinned early-summer harvest. The word is a tender form of картопля (kartoplya), Ukraine’s word for potato. Ukrainian early-summer tables center on moloda kartopelka boiled with fresh dill, butter, and сметана (smetana, “sour cream”), often served with fresh radishes and green onions from the garden. The dish marks a specific moment of the year, and Ukrainian families wait for the new potatoes the same way Italians wait for the first fave in May.
