Рецепт Easy Roasted Russian Banana Fingerling Potatoes
I recently stopped at my favorite produce farm, Nicolet Farms, to see what was available and what was "new". What I found were these Russian Banana Fingerling Potatoes.
What are Russian Banana Fingerling Potatoes?
A fingerling potato is a small, stubby finger-shaped type of potato which may be of any heritage potato cultivars. Fingerling potatoes are available year round.
The Russian Banana Fingerling potato is a perennial fingerling late season producing variety. Small in size and shaped similar to a banana, hence the name, fingerlings are fully mature when harvested. The Russian Banana Fingerling Potato is a small, slender and elongated tuber which typically measures 2-3 inches long. Russian Banana Fingerling potato has a thin pale burlap colored skin with a creamy yellow-colored firm and waxy flesh. It has a mild, earthy and nutty flavor.
