Purple Flesh Potatoes

Purple flesh potatoes, like the Purple Majesty or Purple Viking varieties, are a type of potato with vibrant purple or deep blue flesh. They’re visually striking and often have a slightly nutty flavor compared to traditional white potatoes. These potatoes are rich in antioxidants, particularly anthocyanins, which give them their distinctive color and potential health benefits. They can be prepared in various ways, just like regular potatoes, such as roasting, boiling, or mashing, and are often used to add a colorful twist to dishes like mashed potatoes, salads, or even chips.
