Taste Atlas-Lički krumpir 8. place in the world
The list of the best-rated potatoes in the world gave the Lički krumpir potato the 8th place on the list. Potatoes were evaluated by Taste Atlas for 2023/2024. year, and the first on the list is the Canadian Yukon Gold potato.
Potatoes from Lika differ from others in that they contain a higher percentage of dry matter. That means that this potato contains more starch, vitamins, minerals and fiber. Potatoes grown in Lika have yellow to brown skin and bright white to yellow meat.
The taste of these potatoes is floury due to their high starch content, which also contributes to their ability to disintegrate if cooked for too long. The planting, earthing and extraction of potatoes must take place in the region of Lika, in southwestern Croatia.
