Maris Piper potato (today's sample record)

Plural: Maris Piper potatoes

Language: English

Description: Maris Piper is a popular main crop potato with thin white skin and sweet, cream-coloured flesh. It has good flavour and is excellent for boiling as it does not break up on cooking, mashing and baking. It is also suitable for chipping and roasting. It is a high quality potato, low in sugar and with high dry matter. Not good for salads. (1963).
