so i cut away the green, lifted the tubers, washed most of soil away,
and have left them to dry.

whats the best storage method consindering they'll be in a dark cool
cellar overwinter?

Store them in a shallow box covered with dry sand (not the orange builder's
sand) or dry used compost. Keep checking the tubers through the winter for
any disease, spray the tubers with water if they start to shrivel.
