potatoes

please can anyone recomend potatoes that do not go to water when boiled

 

Pink Firapple are the ones my daughter grows they are excellent very tasty with yellow flesh Yummy... funny shape tho don't attempt to peel em just give a good scrub and you will be back for more.

 

Advice I think I'll take - my pots get a bit mushy even though I always steam my veg!

 

Im a bit of a tatty fiend and i prefer the drier types rather than the waxy ones so getting the boiling just right is a bit of a skill. The main thing i thing is to keep an eye on the pot and turn down the heat to a slow simmer once it starts to boil. Take them off the heat and drain immediately they are cooked. I then give them a shake in the pan to dry them off a bit.

My very favorite variety is the early Sharpes Express. It is usually ready at the same time as the first strawberries. Lovely.
