Estima

Vegetable

Estima

B tier

Estima offers pale skin, light yellow flesh, and versatile boiling-to-baking performance with a smooth appearance that packs well in retail bags. Common in UK prepacks as an everyday potato when Maris Piper is positioned specifically for roasting. Slightly waxy-leaning medium texture covers most midweek jobs. Boil for sides, bake when large, mash if not overworked into glue. Predictable rather than dramatic—the point of a supermarket all-rounder. Good skin finish after washing makes it look clean in clear packaging on cold shelves.
