Can I compost all the small potatoes that I have this year, without them
sprouting up like weeds where I apply the compost? My wife refuses to
peel the marble sized ones, let alone the pea sizes! :-) Potatoes
growing where they were planted the previous year is pain enough without
exacerbating the problem.
But those are the best kind! When they're the very early new potatoes
coming up tiny, they're called chats in Jersey. Don't even think of peeling
them. Roast them with rosemary and coarse salt. Wonderful!
Lazybones like me put them in the microwave in a closed container with a
little butter & seasoning.
Zap for a minute or so.
