Potato Flakes

Potato Flakes

EverydayDried

Potato flakes are a shelf-stable dehydrated product made from cooked, mashed potatoes that have been drum-dried into thin, quick-reconstituting flakes. This processed form retains the potato's starchy carbohydrates while offering convenience, though it typically contains less fiber than whole potatoes due to skin removal during production. The flakes dissolve rapidly in hot liquids, serving as a base for instant mashed potatoes or as a thickener in soups and baked goods, with some commercial varieties containing added preservatives or sodium.
