russet potato
Classic fry source
A russet potato is a large, oblong potato with rough brown skin and starchy white flesh.
Russets are the classic baking potato—their high starch content produces fluffy interiors—and they make excellent french fries and mashed potatoes.
Idaho is famous for its russets.
