Medium Jersey Royals, +/-500g

The Delightful Jersey Royal Potatoes: A Gourmet Experience!

Our Jersey Royals are no ordinary potatoes. Despite their modest size, these vegetables are packed with a punch of flavour and boast a luxurious creamy texture that sets them apart from the rest. They have a unique, nutty, earthy and slightly sweet taste with a delicate, buttery texture. Their thin, papery skin adds to their distinct flavour, making them a seasonal favourite. Born from the fertile soils of the Channel Island of Jersey, these potatoes are a testament to the island's rich agricultural heritage.

The Essence of Authenticity

Jersey Royals are only genuine if they are cultivated traditionally on the sun-kissed shores of Jersey. Each November, the fields are covered with a blanket of seaweed which gives nutrients to the soil and helps protect them against pests. In a season in April, May and June, Jersey Royals have a firm waxy texture and a sweet, nutty and earthy flavour.

Cooking Suggestions: How To Cook Medium Jersey Royals

Start by gently scrubbing the potatoes to remove any dirt, then place them in a pot of salted boiling water. Allow them to simmer until tender but still firm, typically around 15-20 minutes. Once cooked, drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly before serving.

• Boil: Simmer in salted water until tender, around 15 minutes.
• Steam: Retains more flavour and nutrients than boiling.
• Roast: Toss in oil, season and roast until golden and crispy.
• Sautí: Cook with butter or olive oil for a rich, caramelised finish.
• Crush & Fry: Lightly crush after boiling and pan-fry for a crispy outside.
• Salad: Boil, cool and mix into potato salads with dressings.

Serving Suggestions: What To Pair Medium Jersey Royals
