About Potatoes, red, flesh and skin, raw
Raw red potatoes are starchy but relatively low in calories compared to grains, and the flesh plus skin together provide moderate fiber. The skin holds most of the micronutrient density. Fat content is essentially zero. They roast well, hold their shape in soups better than russets, and have a slightly waxier texture that makes them useful in potato salads where you want distinct chunks rather than mash. Leaving the skin on during cooking makes nutritional and practical sense.
