Nicola potatoes are uniform tubers with an elongated, oval to oblong shape. The skin is smooth, thin, and light yellow, with a few shallow eyes. Underneath the skin, the flesh is firm, dense, and golden yellow. Nicola potatoes have a mild, nutty, and earthy flavor with a waxy consistency that develops into a smooth, fine-grained finish when cooked. These potatoes are best suited for boiling, baking, and roasting. The tubers also retain their shape when heated due to their low starch and high moisture content. An excellent source of vitamin C, B6 and potassium.
