The Carisma potato is a premium, white-fleshed potato variety known for its smooth, creamy texture and delicate, slightly nutty flavor. Bred specifically to have a low glycemic index (GI), Carisma is ideal for health-conscious consumers, diabetics, and anyone seeking balanced energy without sharp blood sugar spikes. Its GI rating is significantly lower than traditional potato varieties, making it a standout choice among dieticians and nutritionists.
Carisma potatoes have a pale yellow skin with a smooth finish, and their waxy texture holds up well in a variety of cooking methods. They are particularly well-suited for boiling, baking, roasting, and steaming, as they maintain their shape and offer a moist, tender bite without becoming overly starchy or dry.
This variety is also naturally grown and non-GMO, and it's cultivated using environmentally sustainable practices in select growing regions, such as Australia and parts of Europe.
