***Handy Cook B3tans - My potatoes are sprouting a bit, are they still ok to boil and mash?***

probably
i never came to any harm
cut off any sprouty/green bits and peel them first, i suppose
( plentyofants can't start a fire without a spork, Thu 6 Dec 2007, 17:39, archived)

Officially- no
Potatoes are no go once they start to sprout, and definitely if there are green patches

Unofficially- they're fine. The green bits are worth cutting off, but they're not really poisonous, it's just a combination of old wives tales and a throw away culture

I only chuck stuff away if I can see mould.
Otherwise (especially with veg, and it's just gone a bit soft or wrinkly) it gets chopped up and made into vegetable stock which I freeze for soups and stuff.

I waste WAY more than I used to
But in my normal state of being I use everything I can. I'm still adjusting to my new lifestyle though and it's taking a bit of getting used to
( Jessie © needs pirate name suggestions, Thu 6 Dec 2007, 17:43, archived)

New lifestyle?
Hmmhmm? What's all this?
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 6 Dec 2007, 17:44, archived)

Being part of a duo
ie: can't just skip meals if I want to or make some random concoction up to use up what's in the fridge.

Well, I still do, but it has to at least be edible to others now ;)

Ah I seeeee
Manwife gets what he's given. He knows where Tesco is. :D
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 6 Dec 2007, 17:46, archived)

Hahah, that's what I used to do in previous duos
But I'm apparently a contradiction of lazier and more bothered these days

Usually it's a question of what we have in
He gets his roast every sunday though, so he's happy.

Nighty night pretty lady!

and bread mould is fine (unless you're allergic to it)
it just tastes horrid. so you can cut off the bad bits and consume the rest with glee
( plentyofants can't start a fire without a spork, Thu 6 Dec 2007, 17:44, archived)

Exactly.
Cut it off, toast the bread, cover it in marmite.

I can't be doing with nancying about.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 6 Dec 2007, 17:45, archived)

cover it in marmite
( plentyofants can't start a fire without a spork, Thu 6 Dec 2007, 17:48, archived)

:O
Marmite is for winners.

Bye all!

'night miss!

( Jessie © needs pirate name suggestions, Thu 6 Dec 2007, 17:50, archived)

Yeah, they're fine.
Pull the sprouty bits off, peel and boil as normal.

The rule of thumb is potatoes are usually fine.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 6 Dec 2007, 17:40, archived)

They are ready for regrowing . . .

EFFORT
You have to go outside and do things, and you get no mash at the end of it.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Thu 6 Dec 2007, 17:42, archived)

well you do...
but you need to wait a few months to mash the new ones.
