Shetland Black

£4.00£32.00

Shetland Black potatoes originate from the Shetland Islands where they are first recorded as being bred in 1923. With a very dark purple-black skin and a cream flesh interrupted by a purple ring just under the skin this is an attractive potato with a light, floury flesh. Perfect for roasting, baking, wedging or used to make interesting crisps.
