Hästeberget is an old local potato variety registered in genetic resource databases. The variety has dark skin and shows inconsistent data regarding flesh texture, which is characterized in different sources as starchy or creamy.
This potato belongs to traditional varieties that are not a product of modern breeding. In terms of agronomy, the variety is susceptible to late blight and viruses, while precise information on the maturity group or foliage characteristics is absent.
In cooking, the variety is considered universal. It is suitable for soups and boiling in the skin, as it maintains an attractive appearance after heat treatment.
