Frozen rustic potatoes are irregularly cut potato pieces, with the skin included, preserved through freezing to maintain their freshness and texture. This ingredient is ideal for preparing quick and easy appetizers or side dishes at home, achieving a crispy exterior and a soft interior.
The origin of rustic potatoes dates back to the culinary traditions of homemade dishes where the skin was used to add fiber and flavor, but their frozen version is an industrial product that has gained popularity for its practicality and ease of storage.
Among their properties, rustic potatoes provide complex carbohydrates that supply energy, in addition to containing dietary fiber thanks to the skin, B vitamins, and minerals such as potassium. Being frozen, they retain most of their nutrients and help reduce food waste by being storable for longer periods.
In different Latin American countries, frozen rustic potatoes are also known as frozen cambray potatoes (although the term cambray may refer to a specific variety in some countries), skin-on cut potatoes, frozen potatoes with skin, or simply rustic potatoes. This ingredient is very versatile and is used to prepare everything from baked potatoes to fried or baked side dishes.
