Tons of potatoes

Well maybe not tons of them! :-)

A few days ago I asked "How to freeze potatoes?"

Well I read a few things and set out with my bags of

potatoes ready to roll.

I decided not TO do to many just because I really didn't want to

sit and peel 20 bags of potatoes. :-)

First I started off with a sink full on water to put peeled potatoes in.

Then I peeled and peeled and peeled.

I put 2 pots of water on to start to boil to blanch the potatoes.

I then started on 1/2 of the potatoes grading them for hash browns,

breakfast tacos and for a few other meals. I grated only as much as I

could blanch at one time as so they wouldn't go brown sitting on the counter

after they had been grated.

I blanched them for a few mins and then drained them.

Set them on the counter to dry before putting in bags.

After I was done with the grated potatoes I cubed the rest for soups

and other dishes.

I blanched them for a few mins just like I did with the grated potatoes.

Then drained and cooled and put in plastic bags.

I have the brown hands, only one burn, and the

bags of potatoes in my freezer to show for all my

hard work! :-D

And it wasn't TO hard!!!
