(Potatoes, Red Thumb Fingerling)
Red Thumb fingerling potatoes are small in size, tubular, and oblong in shape,
and they average about 6-7 centimeters (2-1/2 inches) in length. The semi-smooth
skin is ruby red with a few shallow eyes, brown russeting, and some dark brown
spots dispersed across the surface. The potato flesh is marbled with pink and
creamy white and is waxy and firm. When cooked with removing the skin, Red
Thumb fingerling potatoes have a uniform shape and are creamy with an earthy,
buttery flavor. Red potatoes are believed to have originated in Peru, and the
Red Thumb fingerling is a modern variety that is said to resemble some of these
original red potato cultivars. These small potatoes contain iron, vitamin C,
zinc, copper, potassium, and fiber. We found them at a vegfest and they were
grown by Braids 'n' Bulbs in Middleburgh, NY.

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!
