Scrub them and liquidise with some stock.
Simmer for ten minutes.
Enjoy.


No, see, I'm well aware of the fact that I don't like them.
I don't want them. I want them to stop bloody growing!!
:-(

Just a thought. If you have a local greengrocer, ask him if he would like
to buy some to sell as local produce.
It's worth a chance!
Seriously, they do make big money in supermarkets for a few tubers and it
seems a pity that you cannot find a market for them.

P.S. I haven't eaten mine yet but as it's the weekend I'm going to give
them a go.
