Purple Potatoes

Purple Potatoes

EverydayFresh

Purple potatoes are a naturally pigmented variety of Solanum tuberosum, recognized for their deep violet flesh and skin caused by anthocyanin antioxidants. While nutritionally similar to white potatoes in calories and carbohydrates, they provide marginally higher potassium and vitamin C levels, along with potential blood sugar-regulating benefits due to their lower glycemic impact. These heirloom tubers retain their striking color when cooked and can be roasted, mashed, or fried like conventional potatoes, though moist cooking methods may cause slight pigment bleeding.
