The perfect canvas for any flavor

Today, the potato is America’s favorite vegetable, but the origin of potatoes began far away from the United States. The Inca Indians in Peru were the first to cultivate potatoes around 8,000 BC to 5,000 B.C. In 1536, Spanish Conquistadors in Peru discovered the flavors of the potato and transported them to Europe. From there, potatoes spread around the globe and were incorporated into nearly every global cuisine because they provide the perfect backdrop for all types of flavors and seasonings.
