(Potatoes, French Fingerling) French fingerling potatoes are small to medium
size fingerlings and are slender and cylindrical in shape with rounded ends,
averaging 6-7 centimeters (2.5 inches) in length. The rose-colored skin is thin
and smooth with some shallow eyes and brown spotting scattered across the
surface. The flesh is firm, dense, slippery, and is a marbling of pink and
ivory. French fingerling potatoes stay firm and waxy when cooked and offer a
robust, earthy, nutty, and buttery flavor. We cook them with the skin. The
French fingerling potato was developed and released commercially in France in
the 1950’s, where it was created from a cross between the rosa and vale
potatoes. We found them at a vegfest and they were grown by Braids 'n' Bulbs in
Middleburgh, NY. We could not find any specific nutritional information for the
French fingerling potatoes.

The
above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31):
'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every
tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the
earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that
has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all
that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live!
