Potatoes will not cook properly.

I don't suppose there is anything I can do about it. It is going to be a huge waste. Some people on the allotment are going to store theirs hoping that a bit of coolness or whatever might sort it. Should I write them off? Or store them in the unlikely event that this would fix them. Cheers Baz Try grating them and turning into potato cakes or Rösti. Maybe try them as hash browns. Rösti works, and I have never tried it before. Very nice when fried and then grilled with cheese on top then tomatoes. Yum. I'm glad I started this thread, I was going to compost them. Also, what happens if you microwave them (spear with a fork in several places first!)? The microwave does not even touch them after 5mm deep. Then the skin goes hard after a bit more time, and the rest is solid. I know to spear with a fork in several places first, I had a mini-explosion years ago. Took me ages to clean up the inside the microwave afterwards Thanks, Jeff, for your ideas, much appreciated. Baz |
