These potatoes were purchased at my local farmer's market and the farmer selling them said the were Ozark Purple Potatoes. The web doesn't have much that particular strand, but I did learn that purple potatoes have their orgin in South America. You can have potatoes that are deep purple flesh with purple skins or white skins with purple eyes, or yellow skins with purple flesh or purple skins with yellow flesh. The Ozark Purple has purple skins with a marbled, purple flesh.
They are fingerling in shape, with some being much larger than others. This was a larger potato.
I enjoyed working with their colorful flesh, deciding to make a roasted potato as that is one of my favorite ways to enjoy potatoes these days. I added a few baby carrots to the roasting to complement the purple color.
