Red Potatoes are cherished for their smooth, vibrant red skin and their firm, waxy texture. Smaller and rounder than their russet counterparts, with a subtly sweet flavor, they hold their shape beautifully when cooked, making them perfect for potato salads, stews, and soups. These potatoes are a pleasure to bite into, with a moist, creamy flesh that pairs exceptionally well with rosemary, thyme, garlic, and butter. Rich in vitamin C, potassium, and dietary fiber, Red Potatoes are both a flavorful and nutritious addition to any meal, whether roasted to perfection with a golden crust or boiled and tossed in a delicate vinaigrette.
