Food preservation, trying vacuum sealing potatoessteemCreated with Sketch.

In an attempt to figure out different ways to preserve my huge potato harvest, I've decided to try the vacuum sealer.

For this technique I washed the potatoes

Dried the potatoes , leaving them to dry for several hours.

Made the bag and packed the potatoes

Then sealed them.

I also tried slicing them and sealing like that.

This is my first time trying vacuum sealing potatoes so I will see how they do and report back later.

Bei uns in Österreich werden die Kartoffel im Keller gelagert (mit Sand abgedeckt) vollkommen dunkel.

With us in Austria the potato stored in the cellar (covered with sand) is completely dark.

Yes I wish I had a cellar or even better a root cellar.

Cool. I wonder which will work. And whether the cut ones will change color even after vacuum sealed.

I'm definitely wondering the same thing.

see my updated post, this didn't work out so hot.
