If I peel my potatoes today and leave them on the kitchen counter covered with water, will they be safe to boil and mash tomorrow?
No room in the fridge, thus my dilemma.
Looks to be about 43 tonight. I could set it outside. Is there really a safety issue with this? Maybe I better google around - or- just wait until tomorrow to peel them.What is your weather like in your region? Are the nights cold enough for you to put the peeled potatoes in cold water in a secure container, then put them on a porch or in the garage/carport. We have a bench in our breezeway that I use as an auxiliary "chiller" in the colder months.
That's a great idea, but it requires a run to the store for ice and I'm too pooped to do that. I think I'll just wait until tomorrow.Can you set the bowl on ice in a cooler?
