Salt-tolerant varieties have a nicer taste

Journal editors and journal­ists of the national press came to the island of Texel late July to meet the first salty delicacies from Dutch soil. At the Zilt Experimental farm in Den Hoorn, there were 26 seedlings and new potato varieties in total that were especially selected for salt tolerance and were ready to be tasted. The taste test showed that there are already varieties that fully deserve the name tasty and salt tolerant.
