'Sangre' Potato (Solanum tuberosum). A versatile variety with red skin and white flesh. The 'Sangre' potato is an early to mid-season variety, prized for its smooth, dark red skin and creamy white flesh. Known for its high productivity and excellent storage qualities, it is perfect for a wide variety of culinary uses: creamy mashed potatoes, roasted, boiled, or in salads. Easy to grow, it adapts to different soil types and offers good uniformity in size, making it an ideal choice for both beginner and experienced gardeners. Width/Spread: 14 cm (6 in) per plant. Quantity: 500 g (approximately 5 to 8 tubers).

April to May, as soon as the soil reaches 8-10°C and there is no longer a risk of frost. Open-ground method. Then, prepare the soil by loosening it and incorporating compost or well-rotted manure. Then, plant the tubers 9 cm (4 in) deep, with the sprouts facing upwards. Then, space each plant 30 to 40 cm (12 to 16 in) apart, in rows spaced 70 cm (28 in) apart. Then, cover with soil and water lightly. When the plants reach 20-25 cm (8 to 10 in) in height, mound soil around the stems to protect the tubers from light and prevent them from turning green.

Repeat the operation once or twice during the season. Pot or grow bag cultivation. Then, choose a large container (minimum 40 cm (16 in) deep). Then, plant the tubers in 15 cm (6 in) of potting soil, then cover. Then, add potting soil gradually as the plant grows. Then, water regularly without waterlogging the soil. Tip: Well-drained soil and crop rotation help prevent diseases like blight or scab. Let the potatoes dry on the ground for a few hours before storing them. Storage: Store them in a cool, dark, and well-ventilated place to extend their shelf life. Versatile in cooking: purees, roasts, salads, and boiled.

Edible parts

Tubers harvested sound and not greened, after cooking; exclude sprouts, leaves, stems and berries
Herb-Roasted Potatoes. Use potatoes from your harvest that are healthy, green-free, and sprout-free. Wash them thoroughly, remove any damaged parts, and cut them into similar-sized pieces so they cook evenly. Toss them with a little oil, salt, pepper, and herbs of your choice, such as thyme or rosemary. Spread them in a single layer in a baking dish or on a baking sheet, without overcrowding. Roast them in the oven until the outside is golden brown and the flesh is tender when pierced. Turn the pieces during cooking to brown multiple sides. Serve with vegetables, a salad, or your main course. You can add fresh chives just before serving. Adjust cooking time according to the size of the pieces and your oven. This recipe uses tubers harvested from the garden, never plants sold for planting, leaves, berries, or sprouts.
