Hello Matt
The funny thing is , someone from germany asked me , why I make so much fuss about my little Vegiepatch,
because I dont have much help anymore , I still need to potter around , so I told him about the Kipfler Potato,
but i had no picture when I surged and found a picture in your web
thanks again , at least I could tell and show what I meant ,,
all the best from Yarra Valley VIC*** simona09

Hi Matt
Thanks for your findings
I grow Kipfler myself
only a few , but Fun
I cut 1 Potato into 4 pieces and let them dry a little than into the soil,
that is more Fun than cooking them
have Fun all of you,

Hi Matt,
we got our Kipfler seed potatoes from the “Diggers Club” Drommana Vic. http://www.diggers.com.au
Just harvesting a beautiful crop as I write. Look forward to trying some of your recipes.

Iought that Kipfler spuds were supposed to be low fat, or something that makes them a better potato to have if you’re on a diet. Can anyone confirm this please

Planted Kipflers (1.5kg)in September and harvested today. 300grams of midgets. Soil, temp, water, love all OK. Lots of granny slaiters. What can I do with my 20 or so babies.

Was reading Not Quite Nigella, an Australian blog, and she mentioned Kipfler potatoes. I’ve never seen them called that here in the Pacific Northwest and had to search to find out what they are. You were my number one Google result!

Anyway, the potatoes look delicious, and your blog looks really interesting so I’m going to poke around a bit.

Hi Matt

Have heard great things about this potato so when I saw them at Coles the other day I bought some to try. I wasn’t sure how to cook them so googled ‘kipfler potato’ and came across this site. I ended up boiling them and then browned them with a bit of olive oil, salt and cracked pepper under the grill. YUMMO!
Great site too Matt!
