More then the cooking process you need to go back to the potato itself. There are 2 types, waxy and starchy. That is going to determine the texture more then anything. Red Bliss-waxy Russet-starchy



Well i know some things about potatoes, I cook a lot of potato dishes at home. When you cook a potato the {STARCH}carbohydrate-chains cointained in them while raw start to breakdown as it cooks, in turn that makes a potato easier to eat and digest. Because no one wants to a potato raw!!!
Here's my view
fried-crispy/chewy
baked-dry/pasty
boiled-soft/mashable
grilled-kinda the same as frying maybe less oil but definetly pasty

My kitchen.
