There are two types of Vivaldi potatoes, regular and baking. Which one did you try?

Right now not. Used Asdas baking potatoes. Not the best but not much option otherwise

It's very hard to know. Perhaps try in December. It's hit or miss really.

I like the British sainsbury potatoes they cone in 2.5 kilo and are just over £ a packet. Beautiful white fluffy kugel

What does it hurt to try? If posters say it's good and it doesn't have good reviews what do you lose to try 5 pounds? Vs not trying and not finding a potato you like for kugel.
