“Shoestring Potatoes Spilling Out of a Bag,” a stuffed canvas work that’s nearly 10 feet tall, is among the Oldenburgs at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis.

I’d stick instead to the fluke sautéed in browned butter and thyme, with a side of shoestring potatoes that seem out of place but are so good nobody is likely to complain.

My local specialty market has a truffle ketchup that offers a tasty, if a little cloying, play on truffle fries when drizzled over some shoestring potatoes.

Agora has its thumb-size lamb sausages, garnished with shoestring potatoes, made to its specifications by a butcher.

The flavoring adheres to the sticks — which are a little like rough-textured shoestring potatoes made from a Frito-like corn product — and provides a good balance of chili and spice.
