In the kitchen

How do you store Patates?

Store in a cool, dark, dry place; refrigerating can turn starch into sugar and spoil the taste. Potatoes exposed to light turn green and sprout — those parts should be trimmed away.

What should you look for when buying Patates?

Choose potatoes that are firm, unsprouted and free of green spots.

What goes well with Patates?

Cooking potatoes with the skin on increases fiber content; pairing with yogurt or olive oil balances the plate.
