Originating from the highlands of the Andes, South America, potatoes were introduced to Europe in the sixteenth century. Potato has a high iron content which promotes a healthy, and radiant complexion. Potato contains azelaic acid which acts as a natural skin brightening agent. Different types of potatoes, especially those that come in other colors, contain more nutrients that have health benefits.
Additional Information
• Don’t store potatoes in the fridge. Raw potatoes have lots of starches, and the cold temperatures can turn the starches into sugars.
• This can make your potatoes turn sweeter and darker during cooking.
