2003 Red Trial

All entries in all evaluations rated slight on after-cooking-darkening with the exception of CO94019-1R which was moderate when oven baked. These entries also scored very closely in total ratings. The range being only 51.8 - 59.1 out of 75 possible.

When boiled Red LaSoda and AO96747-1R sloughed severely. All other entries sloughed slightly to moderately. Cherry Red, Dark Red Norland and CO93037-6R had a pasty texture. CO93037-6R and NDTX4271-5R had unacceptable flavor. While Cherry Red, Red LaSoda and AO93487-2R were all rated with good flavor.

Cherry Red was the only entry to be rated as having a fluffy texture when oven baked. AO96747-1R, CO93037-6R and CO94019-1R were all deemed to have a pasty texture. All other entries were rated as creamy texture. Only CalRed had crispy skin with some burnt areas. The remaining entries all had skin like it was steamed/baked in aluminum foil.

The tuber center of Red LaSoda and NDTX4304-1R were slightly raw when microwaved. All entries were rated as having a creamy texture with the exception of NDTX4304-1R which was given a pasty rating. As would be expected the skin had a steamed rating for all entries.

French fries from all entries were light and uniform. Chips from AO93487-2R, CO93037-6R & CO94019-1R received the highest average SFA ratings of 2.5, 2.1 and 1.9 respectively. All other entries fried with average SFA ratings of 3 or darker.
