Parboiled Potatoes 796 ml Leader Price – Ready to Sauté, for Gratin, Raclette and Soup
Couldn't load pickup availability
A box opens, a stream of salted water into the sink, and twenty minutes later the pan sizzles and browns while the house begins to smell of butter: these are Leader Price pre-cooked potatoes, the shortcut that tastes like a real meal.
There are evenings when everyone gets home late, when the fridge is half empty, and when someone still says: “We’re eating together, right?”
First bite: the golden crust barely cracks, then the center opens, tender, soft, a little starchy, exactly as I hoped. The butter has melted inside, the salt is just there, subtle. I poke a second time, without waiting. I think of a large table on a Sunday evening, of the cheese flowing over the raclette table, of the gratin bubbling in the dish, of someone saying “another potato, please.” It’s simple, it’s hot, it’s comforting. And I have another.
These potatoes have already done most of the work for you. They are pre-cooked and preserved in salted water, ready to be fried, slipped into a gratin, placed under the cheese of a raclette, or plunged into a soup. You drain them, and immediately, the kitchen comes to life.
No peeling. No water to bring to a boil while watching the clock. Just the hot pan, a knob of butter, and that moment when the potatoes start to brown on the edges.
Why we always keep them in the pantry
You don’t buy a box of potatoes to “save a meal.” You buy it for the improvised raclette on a Tuesday evening, the Sunday gratin that doesn’t take all afternoon, the steaming soup that warms you up when it’s -25 °C outside. Everywhere in Canada, when winter settles in, a dish of golden potatoes on the table is a little corner of Europe that invites itself into your home.

WHY WE USE THIS SHIPPING SYSTEM ONCE A WEEK
WHY WE USE THIS SHIPPING SYSTEM ONCE A WEEK
The reason is simple: that's why we use this shipping system once a week, where products are shipped on Sundays.
If we were to keep all products in large quantities, we would need a very, very, very large warehouse, like a large distribution center. The cost of that would significantly increase our prices.
Instead, we keep limited stock and receive weekly deliveries.
However, not all of our 100+ suppliers deliver at the same time, and not all of them have an accurate inventory system — and that's another story lol.
For this reason, in order to build your package, we have to wait for products from all suppliers. If we already have all the items, your package may be sent faster. It also depends on the volume of orders.
We hope you understand 🙏
WHEN WILL MY ORDER BE SHIPPED?
WHEN WILL MY ORDER BE SHIPPED?
All orders are dispatched once a week, on Sundays. All services, including express service, follow this same shipping schedule.
You place an order here (Week 1) – for example: whether it's Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, or Saturday.
👉 This is considered our order week (Week 1).
👉 Your order will be prepared from the following Monday until Saturday, then dispatched on the following Sunday (the next Sunday, not the one in the week you ordered).
👉 If you order on Sunday or later in the new week, your package will then be dispatched the Sunday after that, approximately 14 days later.

Product FAQ
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHEN WILL MY ORDER BE SHIPPED?
Orders are processed weekly.
If you place your order before Sunday, it will be processed and shipped on the following Sunday (not the immediate Sunday).
If you order after Sunday, it will be processed and shipped on the following Sunday (i.e., the second Sunday after your order).
WHERE ARE THESE PRODUCTS LOCATED?
All our products are already in Canada, in our warehouse, ready to be shipped. You will not have any customs fees or hidden charges upon delivery.
WHY DO YOU SHIP ONCE A WEEK?
Because we work with several importers and suppliers.
Some products are in limited quantity in our warehouse and we must wait for the missing items to be received.
Since our suppliers do not all deliver on the same day, we consolidate orders and ship once a week to ensure your order is complete.
WHY IS AN ITEM MISSING FROM MY ORDER?
Some of our suppliers do not have a real-time inventory system and do not always notify us when a product is out of stock.
In addition, some received items may have an expiration date that is too soon. We check each product upon receipt and remove those that do not meet our standards.
If an item is missing, it is because we have chosen not to include it in order to guarantee you the best possible quality.
WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A RETURN POLICY?
As these are food products, we cannot accept returns for safety and hygiene reasons.
Once a product has been shipped, we cannot guarantee the storage or handling conditions.
Why has the price of this product increased since my last order?
Our products are purchased in euros, so the exchange rate directly influences our prices.
In addition, transportation and import costs can vary, which can also impact the final price.
