So it's pot luck what the potatoes turn out like. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

The best for the chips is the one they use for roasting. The one use for mashing is to soft. Here in Holland we have the "bintje" and they say it's the best potato for making chips. Better ask your local green grocher. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Anyone know a better vinegar than the brown malt vinegar to put on fish and chips? My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
