grandma just died and along with her estate she left me 32 pounds of small potatoes.

What should I make with these things?

A profit.

Put them in the cellar and eat off of them over the winter.

Make twice baked potatoes and freeze them.

>> No.6729405

Mash some and freeze it.
Grate enough to fill a pillowcase and sqeeeze out the liquid-- you have hashbrowns.
Homefries
Baked Poderders
Attempt potato chips (you will burn most, and thus dwindle your potato supply further)

And of course, see if you can get shit from your neighbors for them. Mine have fruit trees, so I could always trade my extra goods to them for access to fresh fruit.

Make a whole bunch of potato, leek and bacon soup and freeze it.

Also make potato salad. I like to halve or quarter them depending on size, then toss in oil, salt and pepper and roast at 375 until cooked. Let them cool, meanwhile get some green beans, about a 1 to 3 ratio with the amount of potatoes, trim them then throw into boiling water for a minute and a half-ish, before taking them out and running under cold water. Cut the beans into thirds, toss into a bowl with the potatoes, along with a good handful of parsley and red onion, both thinly sliced as possible. Then add equal parts dijon and mayo, enough to coat everything without going over board, a splash of lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste.

Depends, how much artificial crab meat you got?

Smashed potatoes or sometimes called adult tater tots

-bake whole in the oven until reaches normal baked potato doneness
-smash once with shotglass, you want them flat-ish and cracked open, but not completely obliterated
-make mixture of olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper
-drizzle over potatoes
-sprinkle with parsley
-bake until golden brown/edges are crispy

>> No.6729444

Boil 'em, mash 'em, stick 'em in a stew.

I used to make these a lot but I boil them first for 15 minutes and then smash them. I season them then put them in the oven for 35 minutes.

Good shit

Having something with crunch is nice, but it's not like someone can force you to eat your vegetables. I think they make the dish though.

yeah, I've read a few recipes that recommend boiling. I like to bake them because I use the same baking sheet the whole time, so its one less thing to clean later.

I can't believe nobody has asked this, but why did your grandma specifically leave you 32 pounds of small potatoes? Was it in her will?
After her funeral, did her lawyer address the whole family and read:
>"And to my autistic neckbeard grandson, Anon, I leave the entirety of my estate, along with 32 pounds of small potatoes"
Also, congrats on the new property.

I feel so bad for finding this funny. Rest in peace, Anon's grandma.

Potatoes store just fine in a cold, dry, dark basement or whatever. My family buys potatoes in bulk too and if stored properly, they won't go soft or sprout for a long time. And if you freeze mashed potatoes, I will personally find you. As for recipes... Boiled and served whole or mashed, fries, baked potatoes, cottage pie, potato babka, potato pancakes, Silesian dumplings (or any other potato dumplings like Knödel), soups (like lentil soup) or stews, potato salad, potato sausage... I'm sure there are many, many more that I'm forgetting.

Funeral potatoes.

>> No.6731968

salt potatoes.

just boil them for a long time with tons, and tons, of salt, like a pound of salt in the pot. then add a pound of butter to the pot of drained potatoes. you can reuse the saltwater to keep boiling more potatoes.

i could live on fucking salt potatoes.

throw some corn cobs and sausages into that pot with the potatoes too. won't hurt. feast on corn, sausage, and buttery salty potatoes for a week, just sleep and eat all day.

>> No.6733598
