La Ratte Potatoes

They have a nice fluffy (flourly) but solid texture. Very rascally skin. Yum!

I was excited to see the La Ratte variety being offered by the Spud Sisters!
This variety was the preferred spud of the late French chef Lubuchon and he used these to make his famous puree de pomme de terre - mashed spuds with loads of butter you push through a sieve. I have given this a go with a great result. These spuds have a chestnutty flavour which gives your mash a distinctive flavour. Give them a try. I know i will be again.

Wonderfully versatile potato... equally good mashed, as wedges, in salad ... makes a great Salade Niçoise. Superior to Kipfler in all ways (imho).
