I don't know,I did mine differently. It was a bit of work, but a lot less than this. I would peel and wash my potatoes whole keeping them in water when not handling them. Then I would shred in my food processor immediately returning them to water so there's no color change. Finally I pull them out of the water using clean dish towels I would dry them well and use my vacuum sealer system to bag them all up. No precooking needed. When I used them they cooked up just fine. I also used this for "getting rid of" potatoes that were close to going bad, and potato cubes for soups stews and casseroles. Never precooked anything. All worked out great.

Me too. Ones I dehydrate, get blanched though. No freezer needed.

@@fourdayhomestead2839 I have a dehydrator,I just rarely use it. Don't ask me why.

Another great way to preserve potatoes!

We used that same method at a restaurant I was working at. The leftover baked potatoes would get run through our big mixer grating attachment, spread out on large sheet pans, and frozen. Great way to store large quantities of potatoes. Very helpful video. We enjoy your tips on food preservation as we also buy bulk quantities for the savings

That's so great! I love seeing food get re-purposed for something else instead of waste.

You scrub them clean, but do not peal them?

[@cmiller974]

You lose a lot of great nutrition in the skins! They’re a specialty item in some restaurants!

[@theranchershomestead8497]

Yes I do not peel them, the skins shred right off so need for the added work!

[@cmiller974]

Why aren’t you putting that heel of potato skin in the compost?

[@theranchershomestead8497]

Definitely should be!
