McHENRY Tips For The 1 Homemaker fl H you planted potatoes in your home garden, freeze some of them when they are in the "new potato" stage. Not only are they especially tasty, but they seem made to order for hurrv-up meals. Nancy Moore, McHenry county Extension adviser, says potatoes about the size of walnuts freeze best It isn't necessary to peel new potatoes Simply wash them well and scrub vigorously, or scrape them if you wish, to remove the tender skin. Blanch the potatoes in a boiling water bath as follows. Potatoes one inch in diameter, 4 minutes; potatoes l1- inches in diameter, 7 minutes; potatoes larger than l'v inches in diameter, 8 to 10 minutes. Start counting the time the moment the potatoes are put into the boiling water. After blanching, chill potatoes for 3 to 5 minutes in ice cold water to stop cooking action. Drain well, package in moisture-vapor-proot con­ tainers and freeze at 0 degrees F. To cook, add frozen potatoes to enough boiling salted water to barely cover. Quickly bring to a boil and cook gently about 15 minutes or until tender. Avoid over-cooking. Because of the increased cost of potatoes, many home gardeners are growing their own potatoes. If you are fortunate enough to have a surplus, here are some tips on making home-frozen French fries. Nancy Moore, University of Illinois Extension adviser, H o m e E c o n o m i c s , recommends that you select medium to large potatoes. Pare and cut them lengthwise into uniform strips about \ inch thick. Rinse quickly in cold water to remove surface starch. Dry thoroughly on absorbent paper Arrange in a shallow baking pan, and brush generously with melted butter or margarine. Bake in a preheated, very hot oven - 450 degrees F. - until they begin to turn brown. Turn the potatoes occasionally. Remove them from the oven, cool in the refrigerator as fast as possible, package in moisture-vapor-proof con­ tainers, label and freeze. The recommended storage time is one month at 0 degrees F To serve, return the frozen fries to a shallow baking pan and bake in a preheated oven at 450 degrees F. until thawed and golden brown and tender Turn potatoes occasionally and season to taste.
