I am not sure what variety the red is. I just remember planting a potato from a batch that had started to sprout and these are what we have.
I am thinking tonight I will make this Red Potato Salad only I will combine the two colors. And omit the bacon since I am trying to keep the fat low in my meals.
Happy Gardening!

Just finished posting my own little garden entry and noticed yours had popped up on the blog list...those blue potatoes really caught my eye. What a wonderful color! Occasionally we find them in the local store and I noticed when cooked, they have a much sweeter flavor than other types. Do you find this true of the blue varieties in particular?
ReplyDeleteYum ... I just love new potatoes! Do the Adirondack Blues have a blue center or are they white?
ReplyDeleteTaylorsoutback,
ReplyDeleteYes, they really are sweeter and I love the violet color when cooked. I hope I find more seed potatoes at the nursery soon. I would like to plant more of these in the fall.
These look like Easter eggs!
ReplyDeletePamela, I thought the same thing when I took this photo. They are long gone now and were yummy!
ReplyDeleteMel, sorry for the delay in responding, for some reason I did not get this notice until today.
ReplyDeleteYes, the color is blue to purple when cooked.
