About Russet Potato
A russet potato is a large, starchy potato with a rough, dark brown skin and white, mealy flesh that is ideal for baking, mashing, and frying. Also known as an Idaho potato, it is a versatile all-purpose potato with a thick skin that crisps up when baked and an interior that becomes light and fluffy.
