Great idea jill, so true some foods are scarce and expensive,car fuel astronomical.I like that you find the importance of organic i try to get on special, you gave me idea to freeze savings no wastage Bonus!🤗
Thank you for teaching how to do this,I often wondered how in the world I was going to save all the potatoes that I buy before they get spoiled. Now, I can go save the potatoes!! Awesome video!! Thank you so much!!
Glad it was helpful! They do turn out really well. I just pull what I need from the freezer and cook them up.
Great!!!!
Thanks for the perfect tips Mam Jill
I really appreciate this video because I always have to throw out potatoes that have spoiled. Thank you so much. Now I can buy more and freeze them. I already learned from you how to freeze carrots. Saves time and money. Thanks so much.👍👍
Glad it was helpful!
Informative video Jill!
Great, easy video. Thank you so much! ❤
Thanks for the great video, Jill! I have never been able to freeze potatoes correctly!
You are so welcome! I hope you'll check out my frozen carrot recipe. It's equally successful. Thanks for watching -Jill
Thankyou for sharing! I’m going to freeze our potatoes now.
Sounds great!
Great video thank you :)
Very helpful thank you!
You're welcome!
Hi Jill, thank you very much for making this "no fluff or fillers" video, and I love your apron! Will you share with us where you got it? I have a 'utility pan' also, 40 years old and still going strong. I subscribed, and I hope to see many more videos especially now that the food crisis is very real. I have a farm, I can or freeze my entire garden, but I'm always interested in learning new things. Bless your generous heart!
Hello Ocean Soul, thanks for your kind words. I use my freezer like a crazy person. My husband tells me he can't shove onr more thing into it. 😉 The ability to freeze potatoes is wonderful. I freeze little chunks, fries, and mashed.
I bought my apron several years from a kitchen shop. It's an April Cornell apron. I've copied the website address for you: www.aprilcornell.com/prod_detail_list/table-linens-kitchen. Hope you enjoy the website. It's got beautiful items.
@@Jill4Today Thank you so much! I can relate, I just bought another freezer. With all the worries about supply from my hay man and the farmers out here in Eastern CO, I like being "stocked to the gills!" Enjoy your 4th!
Thanks for posting the link to the Mueller. So many channels rave about a product, but don't tell you what model it is, sometimes not even mention the brand. I have a Vidalia Chop Wizard but am not happy with the size of the large dicer. The Mueller looks perfect and I used your link to order one. Months later since you posted this, potato prices are getting worse. I've been dehydrating Russets. I'd rather not use Yukons for freezing, but if as you say they crumble, I don't want to waste my time with Russets. Thanks so much for this video - very timely for me.
I hope you'll like yours. I'm very very happy with the way it cuts. I've not gotten around to using all of the other attachments, but the ones I have used, work really well.
Thanks so much for a really quick and informative video :)
Glad it was helpful!
Good idea.
I too have a Mueller chopper, they are the best!
Thank you so much 🙏 God bless you
Thank Jill, you look so good. I love all your recipes
Thank you so much for this video. I can buy 10 lbs. of potatoes for .99 on sale. Certainly much cheaper than 1 bag bag of frozen. I make a baked potato soup in the pressure cooker that uses them frozen. Saving lots of money with this great recipe. Thanks, D
You are so welcome! I think you'll like how well they freeze up.
I forgot to mention, great video
Thank you so very much! I just subscribed. I have tried everything and just never get them to come out right. Turns out my issue was I was always using Russet potatoes! This was a great video. Thank you again.
I'm glad you found this video helpful
How long will the potatoes last in the freezer?
A. Good to 6 months. I actually have some in my freezer, and they've been there almost a year. They look and tastes really fresh.
We are trying to grow potatoes this summer so this freezing will help.
@@judywho2249 hi, I wrote back the other day. The potatoe will last atleast 6 months. I have some that are almost a year old and they are still very good.
@@Jill4Today I'm pretty sure they will last longer if you vacuum seal them
Can you start this process as soon as you harvest them or should you wait for them to cure?
Hello from my homestead in northwest Florida! . My potatoes in my garden are coming in and I have so many! I have 35 rows of three different kinds, yellow, red, and white. I been looking at videos to freeze my potatoes and your video popped up in my recommended videos.
Great! I hope it helps you with your bounty
Thank you maam 🥔
Thank you
To clean your cookie sheet: If you have a self-cleaning oven, put your pan in the oven and set your over to self-clean. I've done that. I have done the same thing with cast iron pans. Works great!
Highly recommend not doing this. They are not made for that type of heat. You can use some scent free oven cleaner, let it sit 2-5minutes and wipe it clean.
@@shaynalinkie It works for me. On aluminum pans it worked just find. No damage to the pan that I know of.
@John Vásquez It absolutely works, but the pans are not made to withstand those temperatures.
Just oven cleaner! Don't use self clean cycle on your stove. It can destroy electronics in the stove control panel. Ironically, stove makers never really figured out how to make this function safe
'great potato work' i love you
I ❤ this chopper.
Me too!
@@Jill4Today I buy onions and peppers and Chop them and freeze them. I just learned how to freeze potatoes today from you thank you.🤗
Thank you Jill...
Thank you so much for this video. This going to save me from throwing out potatoes that have gone bad. I like your colander, can I ask were you got it? I've never seen one like that before.
Glad it was helpful!
Good video thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you Beautiful Spirit of Excellence ✨️ 🙌🏾 ❤️ 💛 ⚘️
You are so sweet! Thank you
Thank you for the technique! I had a difficult time freezing potatoes. They’d always would end up brown and I’d have to discard them.
Great tips and tricks!
Can you be my Mimaw? 🥰🌹💕 😉
But seriously, love you very much!
Kindest regards, Lisa
Glad I could help! And thanks for watching. Jill
I am so happy to see you
Thank you so much
Thanks jill loved the video and knowledge i have subscribed your video was right to the point very understandable and enjoyable great job😊
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for teaching us how to freeze potatoes. Can i ask if they can be used for chips and if so do i use them frozen or thaw them. Thank you.
Hi! Yes, you can fry them. I've not sliced them thinly. But wedges certainly can be baked in the oven or fried. I'd suggest frozen. Just be really careful if you use oil....the frozen potatoes will spit oil when placed in hot fat. Hope that helped
4/27/24: Hi Jill. I thoroughly enjoyed your video and am going to do it today. I have loads of potatoes, more than I know what to do with and don't believe in wasting food, so I came across your channel and this technique looks pretty cool. My question is, after they've been frozen and I take them out to use, should I thaw them out first before cooking in the oven, or frying in oil, or adding to a sauce or soup recipe? Thanks a bunch!
I suggest you use them straight from the freezer. They cook up better that way
How long will they keep in the freezer. Thanks for the video
A good six months. I've had mine in the freezer for about 8 months and they are still delicious
👍
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks for the tutorial. I did everything and forgot to flash freeze them! I'll just have to let them thaw. My grandson brought me a 50 pound bag of potatoes for 8 dollars. They're russets but had to try. Heard russets were not good for canning so froze them.
Russet potatoes can get a bit mealy and mushy when frozen. I've not had good luck with them. But you got such a great deal on those spuds! Wow!
I've been told if the grocery store can freeze it so can you!
That's the truth, right! Hope you enjoy
Hi New subscriber here, as I was so impressed by your video.
Please could you tell me if I can use the same method with sweet potatoes?
Hi! I was asked that before. I don't see why not. If it were me, I'd do a sample with one potato. Do the processing as in my video, then freeze the potato for a week. Prepare it as you want then taste it and see if it meets your needs. Hope that helps
Wow I'm going to eat in your house!
How do they air fry out of the freezer? Add any oils or spices?
I do rub a little olive oil on the potatoes and add the herbs or spices of my choice. I air fry them just like you'd do the spuds you get from the store. Hope it helps
How do you cook them when they come out of freezer ?
You should leave them frozen -- just like the frozen potatoes in the grocery store. They cook up much better that way. I hope that helps
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍
Hugs!
Awesome what about potato skins???
I've not tried just the skins. You'd need to bake the spuds so you could scoop them out. I'm wondering if the baking would be enough "processing." Give it a try with one potato and see how it works
Can you put potatoes in food saver vacuum, pack bags??
I have The seal a meal vacuum pack bag.
I think that would be a really smart move. Just make sure those spuds are good and hard, or you'll have mashed potatoes. 🙂 Thanks for watching.
Curious to know why you put the spuds on a cookie sheet to freeze them instead of just putting them in the baggie and freezing. Is it just so that they don't stick to each other? And the other question that I have is can this be done with sweet potatoes? A friend brought over a couple of cuttings from her sweet potato plants and they're doing great, so I would imagine that I'll have lots of them come harvest time.
You are right about the freezing first on the cookie sheet. They will stick together and be really difficult to get apart. Been there, done that. Regarding sweet potatoes. I don't see why that would not work. I'd sure give it a go.
I didn't know you needed to boil them first!
Hi! Yes, you need to par boil them to kill off the enzymes that break down potatoes
SAME HERE!!!!!..... IT WAS A TOTAL DISASTER😢
I microwave blanch my potatoes in a covered bowl.
Great idea! Thanks for the idea.
how would you prepare the potatos if you want to do mash potatos? Thank you
I'd par boil until tender. Drain them well because after freezing the spuds can retain water. You might even return the drained potatoes back to pot and let them dry our a bit on a low heat before mashing. Hope this helps
Thank you very much
Funny. I put fabric just my lip to feel the authenticity of 😄
what is your defrosting process?
I don't defrost them. I start them off frozen in either the oven, or fry pan
Mom, first of all, thank you honor and glory be upon you Second, I have a question, which is the potatoes you made, did you add any chemicals?
No chemicals. I just dropped them in boiling water for 5 minutes, then plunged them into cold water to cool them down.
Ok mom thank you very much 😊
How much can be saved with this process?
You drained away the water also means you drained away vitamins... 😂
In fact I'm using the steam method... 🙂
thanks for your thoughts.
Would you please advise me on the best potatoe to use to make gnocchi? Iam never successful with them.
Hi, I looked it up, and I've seen both Russet and Yukon gold. I've never made gnocchi, so I'm no expert. Do a Google search and I'm sure you'll find some recipes
I have a question.. You can actually pan fry them just like if you want to fry potatoes without them being mushy?? I want fry potatoes without the mushy part???? I hope that i am explaining that right??? .. Thanks!!
We've never had the prob of mushy potatoes. Get your pan good and hot before adding the oil. Add the potato frozen. Watch out for the spatter from the cold spuds against the hot oil. I hoped you'll be pleased.
yukon potatoes or russet?
You can use either
✨🦋🤍🦋✨
I’m watching a year later and now a 5 pound bag is almost $5 at Walmart!!
Can you freeze whole potatoes? No one seems to put a full potatoe in the freezer. Everyone cuts them up
I think one of the problems with freezing whole potatoes is that potatoes really do need blanching before freezing. You'd never get a whole potato processed correctly and I think once you defrosted/cooked it the poor thing would be mush. But, heck, give it a try. It'd be worth sacrificing one potato to see how it works. Good luck if you do try it
Lord this looks like a lot of work!
Not bad if you grow your own potatoes and not know what to do with them all.
Yes, I suppose so. I’m only dealing with a 10 pound bag that needs to be used soon. I may as well make a few recipes that use lots of potatoes.
This was wonderful, thank @jill4today
Thank you! Glad the video was helpful
