Ring in Spring by Using Unique Potato Types to Create Colorful, Nutrition Packed Dishes
Featured Potato of the Week: Whites
DENVER, May 8, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- This all-purpose potato type, which has white flesh and white (sometimes light tan) skin, is slightly dense and creamy with a subtly sweet flavor. The delicate, thin skins on white potatoes add just the right amount of texture to mashed potatoes, like these Chipotle Mashed Potatoes, without the need for peeling. Also try grilling whites to bring out a more full-bodied flavor, or use them in soups and stews as they hold their shape well.

Remember, a single, skin-on medium-sized potato (5.3 ounces) has just 110 calories, more potassium than a banana, and almost half your daily value of vitamin C (45 percent), with zero fat, sodium or cholesterol, so you can enjoy potatoes every night of the week.
