About Patatas

Patatas, commonly known as potatoes, are a versatile and nutrient-rich root vegetable widely used in cuisines across the globe. Originating from the Andes region of South America, they’ve become a staple in diets worldwide due to their adaptability and affordability. Patatas are a valuable source of carbohydrates, providing energy, along with essential nutrients like vitamin C, potassium, and dietary fiber when consumed with their skin. They also contain small amounts of B vitamins and antioxidants. While they can be part of a healthy diet, preparation methods significantly influence their nutritional profile. Boiled, baked, or steamed potatoes retain their benefits, while frying or adding excessive butter, cheese, or cream can increase calories and unhealthy fats. Naturally gluten-free, they are suitable for various dietary needs. Whether incorporated into hearty stews, roasted sides, or comforting mash, patatas remain a key ingredient cherished in traditional dishes worldwide.
