Waxy, floury - what does this mean?
The right potato can make the perfect dish. It is hard to describe, but a well known waxy potato is Charlotte and a well known floury potato is Maris Piper. A waxy potato is great for salads as holds its shape, whereas a floury potato is great for mashing and roasting.
Potatoes are faster and easier to cook than you think, so have a go.
