● Potatoes:
Potatoes are used worldwide in different dishes. It is rich in nutrients like fiber, vitamins, and minerals. Potatoes can be divided into three categories: waxy, starchy, and those in-between.
The smoother potatoes are the waxy ones. The waxier, smoother texture makes them hold their shape while cooking. They are excellent for dishes like potato salad, potato soup, and when you want to boil or slice them. They are less suited for baking and frying.
If you want to bake or fry potatoes you should use starchy ones. potatoes are great for baking and frying. For cooking they are less suited because of their starch they fall apart quickly. For baking or frying, this is an advantage as they are more absorbent. They are also the most suitable potato if you want to make mashed potatoes.
The in-between potatoes have like the name suggests a little bit from both. If you want to purchase potatoes for more dishes this is the safest option. They can be used for most dishes.
– How to store potatoes?

Extra virgin olive oil has a great number of antioxidants that are good biologically. Olive oil contains nutrients that help fight inflammation. These include oleic acid and oleocanthal antioxidants.
– Can Regular olive oil and Extra virgin olive be substituted for each other?
If like many recipes, the recipe uses olive oil, you can use regular or extra virgin olive oil. It’s up to you and mostly based on personal preference. Both extra virgin olive oil and regular olive oil can be used for baking and cooking. However, note a different smoke point.
Usually, I like to use the more fragrant extra virgin olive oil for dipping in bread, dressings, uncooked dishes, and for purifying to let the aroma sink in.
