Here's something I've never really considered: how does one identify what variety a potato is? In the States, I never really thought about it, since I would just identify them by the bin in which they were displayed.
Here, in Honduras, the stores only have two types of potatoes: regular ones and the purple-skinned, white-fleshed variety (called camotes) that taste somewhat like sweet potatoes.
With only one type of regular potato available here, I haven't thought about varieties much here, either, but now I'm curious as to just what kind of potato these regular ones are.
How may I try to identify these things? I've looked at sites such as the Cook's Thesaurus, but it's still hard to tell.
I'll post a photo when I get back from the store.

If blueberry muffins have blueberries in them, what do vegan muffins have?
