Boiled potatoes should not only be a tasty side dish, but also look appetizing.

Sometimes the vegetable darkens or its color simply takes on a distinct yellow tint.

This result does not satisfy those who want the side dish to look perfect.

How to keep the color of potatoes spectacular and beautiful?

First of all, it is worth reminding once again that the peeled product should not be in contact with air for a long time. Otherwise, the potatoes will simply turn dark.

This side dish is unlikely to seem appetizing to anyone.

You can also try another interesting trick, thanks to which the potatoes will turn out beautiful and tasty. As it turns out, in the process of cooking potatoes, it is worth pouring a little lemon juice directly into the pan.

The component can be replaced with a small amount of citric acid: the color of the potatoes will also be preserved.

You can also try adding 2-3 lemon slices to the pan. Don't worry that this will somehow worsen the taste of the potatoes: on the contrary, the side dish will only benefit from such culinary experiments.
