Frequently Asked Questions

How do you store potatoes and how long will they keep?
Potatoes should be stored in a cool, dark place and can be kept for about 2 weeks.

How do you know if the potato is clean enough and is it okay to eat the skin?
Potatoes are washed at least once before they are packed. It is generally a good idea to wash the potatoes at home to make sure any remaining dirt is removed. The skin on potatoes make them a good source of potassium! Eating the skin adds nutritional value to your potato but potatoes can be enjoyed without as well.

How long do you need to bake potatoes? Microwave? Boil?
Potatoes can be baked at 425 degrees F for 50-60 minutes. Microwave a medium-sized potato on high for 5 to 6 minutes. Boil potatoes rapidly for 15-20 minutes until soft.
