Discover the amazing story behind Joseph Crecca's famous "Fachamatta Potatoes."
Meet Joseph Crecca, Jr., and learn about a recipe that's stood the test of history. Joseph developed his famous "Fachamatta Potatoes" as a young pilot in flight school. Later, when his plane was shot down over Vietnam, as a POW with very little to sustain him, 1st Lieutenant Crecca would share with his fellow POWs the recipe of his "Fach Potatoes," always looking forward to the day when he could get home and prepare them again. Discover more about Joseph's story, and get the recipe that has evolved over the years.
