The most crumbly varieties of potatoes for mashed potatoes. The best potatoes for frying and salads

Adretta

This variety at one time made a revolution. Before Adretta, all yellow varieties were considered fodder and were sent not to the table, but to the cattle trough. The fruits are oval-shaped, covered with a brown crust. The pulp is rich in B vitamins and beneficial microelements. A true natural healer for the heart and vascular system! The greatest benefit can be gained by boiling these potatoes “in their jackets”. Adretta has also found thousands of fans because it is not afraid of diseases and pests, and after freezing its tubers do not acquire a sweetish taste.

Description

The main distinctive feature of the yellow potato variety is the increased content of carotene, which helps improve vision, skin condition and prevents rapid aging.

The shade of the pulp appeared due to the vitamin A content in the product. Experts say that potatoes with a rich yellow tint of pulp are much healthier than white tubers.

Vegetable varieties that are yellow inside

Note! Yellow varieties of tuberous herbaceous plants have a pleasant taste.

Anosta

A Dutch variety that is successfully grown throughout the CIS. The tubers are light yellow, regular round in shape. The taste is suitable for those who, when preparing food, believe that the side dish is not the main thing or intend to open a small factory for the production of chips. The tops are not very resistant to late blight, but in general the variety is not afraid of scab, nematodes and potato cancer.

Kolobok

Mid-season table variety from domestic breeders. Under each bush, from 15 to 18 rounded tubers are formed, weighing from 95 to 120 g each. The starch content in them ranges from 11.4 to 14%.

The yellow peel has a slight reticulation. Small eyes have an average depth.

The light yellow pulp retains its color when cooked and does not turn blue or black. The taste is good. During the cooking process, the tubers crack, but continue to maintain their original shape.

Productivity is at the level of 124-227 kg per hundred square meters. The share of commercial tubers ranges from 87 to 97%. Shelf life is simply excellent - at 98%.

The disadvantages include too thick skin, high demands on soil looseness and fertility.

Suitable for growing in the Central District.

Bellarosa

One of the youngest varieties, which became widespread only in the early 2000s. More suitable for the temperate climate of Eastern Europe. Undemanding to soil composition and temperature changes. The tubers are round, reddish in color, with a slight roughness. Even after heat treatment, potatoes retain excellent taste. During the tests, the variety's resistance to scab, potato cancer, rhizoctonia, blackleg, late blight, etc. was confirmed. The lucky ones who are already familiar with the variety note the high yield and resistance of Bellarosa to mechanical damage.

Classification of potatoes by skin and pulp color

Depending on the variety, the potato flesh can be white or yellow, and the skin can be white, yellow, red or purple. The yellow color of the pulp indicates a high content of beta-carotene in the tubers. The red color of the peel is given by anthocyanins - bioflavonoids that have an antioxidant effect and strengthen the walls of blood vessels. The darker the skin of the tubers, the more anthocyanins it contains. That is why it is recommended to use pink potato juice for medicinal purposes.

Latest articles for gardeners, gardeners and flower growers

Recently, breeders around the world have been working on developing potato varieties with red and purple flesh. This is not a whim: of course, such tubers look impressive, but the high content of anthocyanins makes such potatoes an indispensable dietary product, especially for people with diseases of the cardiovascular system.

Vineta (Veneta)

The variety is distinguished by early ripening and high yield, and it is also not afraid of drought and forgetful gardeners who irregularly water the plants. The skin of the tubers is slightly darker than the pulp; depending on growing conditions, it can be dark amber or light brown. They show almost no damage: cracks, pits, dark areas. The plant avoids such misfortunes as mosaic and potato cancer. Tubers are rarely damaged by nematodes. And if you follow agricultural technology, there is every chance of getting a sky-high harvest.

Tuleevsky

A mid-early variety of large-fruited table potatoes, known for its high yield - from 290 to 400 kg per hundred square meters.

Light yellow oval tubers have a mesh surface with shallow eyes. The starch content in fruits is within 14-16%. Marketability – from 90 to 99%. The harvest is well stored until spring, with virtually no losses.

The pulp with a characteristic yellowish tint has an excellent taste. The average weight of one tuber is from 200 to 300 g.

Admission has been approved in 4 districts: West Siberian, East Siberian, Volga-Vyatka and Far Eastern.

Zekura

A product of German selection, which combines rapid ripening, endurance, pleasant taste and nutritional properties. The result is neat tubers, similar to each other like two peas in a pod. The fruits are slightly elongated, with yellowish, smooth and durable skin and small eyes. Zekura does not allow herself to be attacked by late blight, scab, blackleg, rust, etc. Under favorable conditions (temperature -1-2°C, moderate humidity), potatoes can be stored for up to 4-6 months.

Sorcerer

Mid-early potatoes, which from year to year confidently fall into the top ten best domestic varieties.

Each plant produces up to 15 oval, slightly laterally flattened tubers weighing from 73 to 116 g at full maturity. The smooth peel has a traditional light yellow color. The eyes are small and shallow.

The color of the pulp varies from white to light cream. The taste is excellent, with a slight hint of sweetness. The starch content in tubers ranges from 12.4 to 15%.

Productivity ranges from 270 to 352 kg per 10 m2. The marketability of fruits is high - from 84 to 97%. Thanks to their shelf life of 96%, they are perfectly stored until April-May next year.

The main complaint about the variety is its relatively rapid degeneration and the resulting loss of consumer qualities. However, the “Sorcerer” is able to survive 4-5 seasons without updating the seed.

The variety is approved for cultivation in 7 districts of our country: Northern, Northwestern, Volga-Vyatka, Central Black Earth, North Caucasus, Middle Volga and Far Eastern.

Red Scarlet

"Redskin" is a high-yielding variety for table use. You definitely won’t confuse its fruits with any others because of their characteristic appearance. They are oblong, oval-shaped with a smooth red skin. The color of the fruit does not change during storage; they always look clean and fresh. During cooking, the potatoes retain their original shape. Good immunity is another distinctive feature of this variety. The only thing that can easily “knock down” plants is late blight of tops.

Which potatoes are more crumbly - red or white?

There is no clear distinction between the technological properties of red and white potatoes. In the minds of many buyers, red and pink tubers are less crumbly, because the first imports of potatoes with such skins were categories A and B. In current realities, this border has been erased and depends on the specific variety.

White potatoes are perceived as starchier. With regard to varieties bred in Russia and the countries of the former CIS, this judgment is often true, but there are exceptions.

Reference. If you buy only tubers with pink or red skin to prepare a salad, in 7 out of 10 cases this choice will be correct.

With yellow flesh

For a long time, yellow potatoes were considered fodder. Later it turned out that the rich color of the pulp indicates the presence of carotene (vitamin A). The Peruvian Papa Amarilla varieties are especially rich in it; when cut, they look like rich butter.

Yellow potatoes are not very crumbly, they hold their shape well, so they are ideal for frying. Most often it is low-calorie, so it is suitable for children's and dietary nutrition.

Reference. Yellow flesh occurs in “white-skinned” varieties (Adretta, Anosta, Veneta, Zecura) and in red-skinned potatoes (Bellarose, Red Scarlett, Rosara, Symphony).

Rosara

A healthy, unpretentious variety, suitable for growing in almost any climatic conditions. The harvest does not depend on the vagaries of the weather, and planting material can be used for 5 years without renewal. The potatoes turn out identical, as if chosen, compact and neat. The peel is reddish or with a pink tint. The high shelf life and transportability of the variety allow it to be grown for sale without fear of fungal infection.

Potatoes Ariel photo and description

The existing variety of potato types is explained by constant work to improve growing technology and increase the yield of the vegetable. One of the varieties that deserves attention is the Dutch variety Ariel. It has almost no flaws and is easy to care for. Residents of warm regions appreciated it for the size and mass of root crops, the possibility of double harvesting and the longest possible storage.

Stores well. Fruits abundantly - 22 - 49 tons per 1 ha. You can harvest 2 crops in 1 season. Does not darken after heat treatment. Medium height plant. The tubers are yellow both outside and inside. May be affected by late blight and scab. The color of the peel is beige, the tuber is pale yellow.

It is recommended to change the area for planting Ariel potatoes every couple of years. This will reduce the likelihood of diseases and increase harvest. To obtain 2 potato harvests per season, you need to respect the timing of both plantings. As a rule, this is the beginning of May and July. It is better to germinate potatoes after treating them with a special solution (biostimulator).

The variety is practically not affected by viruses; with good care, it is resistant to blackleg and various rots. Early ripening protects potatoes from late blight infection. It is not afraid of typical nightshade diseases:

• Potato cancer;
• Golden cyst nematode;
• Common scab;
• Curling of leaves.

Potato resistance to diseases and pests should be maintained by observing the following steps. This includes treating tubers before planting, rational crop rotation, timely and sufficient watering, and preventive spraying against late blight.
