The Nicola is an oval, smooth-skinned potato with a pale to yellow skin and yellow to deep yellow flesh. Nicola has a glycemic index rating of 58, making it healthy to eat (in modest portions). Nicola was cooked and tested in a Finnish food study, and was found to have the highest levels of phenolic acids, in comparison to all of the 40 types of potatoes in the study. Phenols are aromatic compounds that have powerful antiseptic and antibacterial properties, which may discourage the growth of cancer.
An absolutely delicious and seemingly decadent way to serve Nicola potatoes: Leave the jackets on and add a few tablespoons of Italian mascarpone cheese and Italian flat-leafed parsley. Mascarpone is like the Grace Kelly of the cream cheese world. It is smooth, and adds a cultured flair and abundant charm to the potatoes making serving Nicola's this way a holiday on its own. Mascarpone can be found at most groceries AND has 1/3 of the calories than butter! Buon Appetito! |

Small potatoes in size. Big in flavor.
Fingerlings are not large. They look more like stubby fingers. Thus the name “fingerling,” and therein lies their unique appeal. Fingerlings are known for their rich flavor, moist, waxy or dry texture and striking colors. Red Thumb fingerling is relatively new and rather rare fingerling potato. It has brilliant-red skin and reddish-pink flesh. It cries out for a place in a gourmet setting. The uniformity of this particular potato makes it a favorite among chefs. When it comes to flavor, fingerlings take first prize. Fingerlings are smooth, rich, and buttery in flavor. Some varieties taste more nutty or earthy. Fingerlings are easy to prepare. Fingerlings taste great roasted, steamed, grilled, fried, sautéed, or boiled. They hold up well, and look great on the plate. Do not peel them. This helps keep their great flavor intact. Moreover, they will hold their shape and absorb less water. However, if you must, skins come off much easier after potatoes are cooked. These taste great roasted, steamed, boiled, or pan-fried. Potatoes are an excellent source of fiber and a high in potassium, vitamin C, copper, folic acid, magnesium, and iron.Cold potato salad made with vinaigrette dressing, stored overnight in the fridge, is by far the healthiest way to eat potatoes. Chilling will increase the potatoes' resistant starch content, the acid in the vinaigrette, (citrus juice or vinegar), slows your digestion, allowing your stomach to more completely process the vegetables. This combination of cooled starch and acidic dressing results in a lower glycemic spike, which is healthier for your body. The Italian approach to Potato Salad usually includes green beans and tomato. Ingredients 2 pounds of the tubers cut into chunks or slices, 1 cup diced fresh tomato 1 cup steamed green beans 1/2 cup of olive oil ¼ cup red vinegar 1 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley 1 tsp. Italian Seasonings Dash of red pepper flakes 1 clove of chopped garlic (optional) Boil potatoes with the skins for about 20 minutes to preserve most of the nutritional value. Add oil, vinegar, parsley, Italian seasoning, garlic, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper to bowl and whisk. Add the tomatoes, green beans, and potatoes to mixture. For additional flavor, add capers and olives, plus fresh chopped parsley. A great addition could be a small can of tuna fish, or any other cooked fish leftovers, including shrimp or whitefish. |
