I just dug my sweet potatoes and have been researching how to preserve them.
Several of my potatoes have been sampled by critters or had an encounter with the shovel. The sights I have visited say to cure at 55 degrees for at least a week. The sights also state only perfect ones.
I am thinking about cutting out the critter eaten portions of the potatoes and canning them up along with shovel damage one. The recipe that I have found states "Cure the potatoes for at least a week."
Can I go ahead and can the damage ones without curing? Or should I cure the damage ones also?
