I just dump them out in a strainer, rinse the starch off of them, put them in a pan with some butter, garlic and onion (normally) and get them golden brown. Some salt and pepper and your good to go. Quite tasty. I BELIEVE IN MY GOD, MY COUNTRY AND IN MYSELF.

He told me years ago that they would plant a early crop and a late crop of taters. The late crop was covered with a couple feet of straw and old fencing and metal roofing was used to hold it down. He said in the dead of winter with snow on the ground his job was to go out and dig up as many taters as his Mama told him to. Sorry, seeing those taters this time of year made me think of that. Did you have yours covered Finster? I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I know people over winter parsnips but I don't know in places where the frost goes nearly 3 feet deep. I cooked some up, sold 4 lots of 2 3/4 lbs for $6 a piece each and gave 15 lbs. of big bruisers to my bro to make parsnip "wine" (with a little help of some raisins). I will plant again next year "And God said, Let us make man in our image �and let them have dominion �and all the creatures that move along the ground". Genesis 1:26

By planting time they have eyes that are 12-24" long and she plants them. We haven't bought tater seedlings in years. I BELIEVE IN MY GOD, MY COUNTRY AND IN MYSELF.
