Bamberger Hörnla

This old variety of potato originated in the German region of Franconia, where it has been grown since the late 19th century. These waxy, almost nutty flavored potatoes are small and have an elongated shape. Potatoes of the Bamberger Hörnla variety are particularly well suited for potato salads, and outside of Franconia they can only be found in gourmet shops or health food stores.
