Amazing Waxy Texture & Flavour
These varieties not only have a unique flavour, but also a unique shape, long and skinny (finger shaped).
Roasting, BBQ’d and Soups are among their best uses.
Linzer Delikatess would be classified as a mid season potato with French Fingerling and Banana, late season varieties and Pink Fir Apple our longest season variety.
Typically you will receive 12-16 potatoes per kg
AmaRosa$2.95 – $29.45AmaRosa is a mid-season fingerling variety with smooth bright red skin and deep red/pink flesh. These creamy nutritious fingerlings are great for baking, roasting, and grilling. AmaRosa also can make fantastically colorful potato chips as they retain their bright red color when fried.
Banana$2.95 – $29.45Banana is a late-maturing fingerling variety with generally small banana-shaped tubers. These fingerlings are covered with light yellow skin containing pale yellow flesh. The waxy texture holds the tuber together for fabulous potato salads. A very high set can be expected. Moderately resistant to common scab and susceptible to late blight.
Bellanita$2.95 – $29.45Bellanita is an early fingerling variety that is smaller in size, perfect for potato salads! This variety produces very high tuber numbers, these long tubers are consistent in shape and have an attractive yellow skin and pale yellow flesh color. The cooking type is rather firm and Bellanita is known for its excellent taste and texture.
French Fingerling$2.95 – $29.45French Fingerling is a late-maturing variety with oblong tubers covered in red skin containing light yellow flesh. This variety has drawn by far the largest number and most favorable comments from previous year's customers. It has the firm waxy texture characteristic of most fingerling varieties. French Fingerling grows well and sets fairly heavy also being common scab resistant.
Linzer DelikatessUnfortunately, we will no longer be growing Linzer Delikatess. We understand that many of you have grown to enjoy this variety, it was one of our favorites as well. Bellanita is another yellow-fleshed variety that we now grow instead. For most climates these two varieties are indistinguishable, however, we have had feedback with some growers in Ontario where it does not produce a potato with a similar waxy texture. We hope you give Bellanita a try. If you do please let us know what you think.
Pink Fir Apple$2.95 – $32.45Pink Fir Apple has been grown for over 100 years, this late season fingerling is quite unusual with long knobby pink-skinned tubers with light yellow flesh. These potatoes make excellent salads but are also great roasted, boiled, and steamed. Pink Fir Apple stores well throughout the winter and has good resistance to common scab.
