Purple Potatoes with Vodka Chantilly and caviar
Purple potatoes are native to Peru and Bolivia and add natural, vibrant colour to your plate!
Natural pigments create the purple colour in the potatoes which act at the same time as a powerful antioxidant. They have two to three times more antioxidant activity than regular potatoes.
The beauty of this purple potato is that they keep the vibrant purple colour after cooking which elevates the level of presentation with little effort!
There is no need to peel them as the skin is very thin. The texture, however, is denser, feels starchier and tastes more earthy than white potatoes.
These purple potatoes are the perfect accompaniment to the light vodka Chantilly and lets the Imperial caviar shine.
