Ok, taking a break from harvesting our potatoes. Here’s how we planted. It’s the easiest crop to grow.

 

Got a bag of seed potatoes. Cut them up so each piece has one eye. Spaced them on bare soil, maybe 2 inches apart, scattered. Eye up or down, no difference. Cover with straw, preferably non sprouting.

 

When the leaves that have poked up die, you go out and harvest your abundance. Pull up the straw and peek. Just pick them off. Take them in and store, unwashed, with dirt on. They will keep in a cool dark place for a long while. When you check them (weekly), immediately remove any that may have spoiled, along with the neighbors.

 

My next post will be potato chips so good you’ll skip the store.

Ok potato chips. Easy.

 

Cut the potatoes into chips, the thinner the better but the key is all even size.

 

Toss in a bowl with a little olive oil (less is better)

 

Spread on a parchment paper baking sheet (trust me, buy the p paper), in one layer and sprinkle salt on them.

 

Bake 425 F for about 20 min, turning the pan halfway through.

 

Turn the oven off but leave chips in for another 30 min, turning pan every 10 min and checking to make sure they don’t char (unless you like that).

 

Chips are done when you say so. Take off and let finish dry on a piece of newspaper.

 

I cannot make these fast enough for my fam.. kek, so have multiple cookie sheets filled and ready to go.
