Choosing & preparing potatoes
How to choose
Match the type to the dish: floury/starchy potatoes (Maris Piper, russet) for fluffy mash and crisp roasts; waxy ones for salads and gratins that need to hold their shape. Avoid green or sprouting tubers.
Prep & storage
Store cool and dark, never in the fridge. Parboiling then roughing up the edges gives the crunchiest roast potatoes; soaking cut chips removes surface starch for crisper frying.
Nutrition
A filling source of potassium, vitamin C and resistant starch — most of the fibre and nutrients sit just under the skin.
Classic flavour partners: butter, rosemary, garlic, cheese, chives, black pepper
