oops! yes i meant german white (porcelain) not german red (rocambole).

german red is my favorite rocambole. i grow german white also, it isn't as good tasting but stores much longer. same for music, often quite hot.

i've tried many different varieties over the years and favored porcelains for longer storage but this fall i plan on going heavy on rocamboles for their flavor and freezing a lot of it. it can't taste any worse than my porcelains in march when they are shriveling and starting to dry out. actually they'll taste just about or as good as when fresh just will be off color and a bit mushy when defrosted.

trying some rocamboles this season to see how they are plus an artichoke. come late summer i'll decide what to do when i go to saugerities garlic festival.
