How to store cut potatoes for the morning? - Crop female florist in apron holding scissors and cutting stem of flower while working in floral shop

Hi all,

I am new here; so first of all, NICE TO MEET YOU!

I want to ask for potatoes storage; as the title said. I usually fry potatoes with the following steps ( I am sure these are good tips ).

  1. Cut potatoes into tiny stick vertically.
  2. Put them all in salted water for 10 minutes or around.
  3. Get them out and fry them.
  4. Put a little water into frying pan to make sure it's not raw and cooked faster than normal.

But how can I store them for the next morning? As I am working and busy alone, I rather cut them in the evening when I came back home from work and cooked them in the morning before going to work. : I cut and put them in salted water and I refrigerated them in a bowl. and when it's morning, they can't be eaten anymore.

Any tips/ help?


Best Answer

When I was in the navy, we used to store peeled and cut potatoes in a big plastic bin covered in water. They would be fine for a day or two.

In a home setting, I think putting them in a covered bowl with (unsalted) water overnight would probably work fine.
