The Delightful Jersey Royal Potatoes: A Gourmet Experience!

These 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. 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.

Cook Jersey Royals Cooking Suggestions

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.

Jersey Royals Serving Suggestions

For a rustic yet elegant dish, try crushing the potatoes lightly and drizzling them with fragrant olive oil, finely chopped chives and a generous sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper. This simple yet sophisticated preparation perfectly accentuates the natural flavours of the potatoes and pairs beautifully with delicate seafood like sea bass.

Indulge in a Culinary Extravaganza

Whether enjoyed as a side dish or as the star of the show, Jersey Royals are sure to impress even the most discerning palates. With their unparalleled flavour, creamy texture and rich history, these potatoes are a culinary treasure worth savouring. 

Please note: These potatoes are the size of a large grape.
