Arja

£18.50

Arja is a new variety to us this year and one that we are very excited about. A descendent of the Mayan family of potatoes this variety derives from the Phureja cultivar group. Beloved for their unique cooking properties they make the best roast potatoes; with a quick cooking time and fluffy interior there is no need to parboil however a few minutes (no more than five or they will dissolve!) in a pan of boiling water prior to roasting can help loosen the edges and create an even crispier finish.

Please Note: This variety is rather large so is only available as a 5kg option.

* Please note: these are not certified seed potatoes. They’re not sprayed with chemicals so will grow if given the chance but we’ve grown them for eating. We recommend planting them in your oven, not in the garden! *

Storage and Other Tips

When you receive your potatoes we advise you keep them in cool, dark, dry, frost-free conditions during the winter months. They should keep well for up to a month if stored correctly.

In spring and summer you may prefer to refrigerate them. They will try to grow once the warmer weather starts to arrive as we do not spray our potatoes with any sprout inhibiting chemicals. Kept in stable conditions they will keep well for a week, we advise that you only order as many as you need during these periods.

Our potatoes are not certified seed potatoes (unless explicitly stated). They’re not sprayed with chemicals so will grow if given the chance but we’ve grown them for eating. We recommend planting them in your oven, not in the garden!
