About Potato Density
Potatoes are dense, starchy vegetables with very little air, but when diced they include small gaps between pieces. A working density of 0.72 g/ml provides reliable kitchen conversions, giving about 150 g per cup of diced potato. Mashed potatoes and shredded potatoes have very different weights per cup.
Cooking & Prep Tips
- Leave the skins on for more nutrients and better texture in roasted dishes.
- Soak diced potatoes in cold water to reduce browning and remove excess starch.
- For mashing, Russet potatoes give fluffier texture; Yukon Gold gives creamier texture.
- For hash browns, squeezed-dry shredded potatoes brown more evenly.
