Yep, potatoes definitely hate being exposed to air. However, I quarter them and toss them into a pot of cold water. Then I boil them by bringing the temperature up from cold. I drain the potatoes then I fill the pot with cold water, which firms-up the potatoes. From this pot, I take the quartered potatoes, peel with a spoon, and dice them.

Potatoes are cheap, so make plenty. There are about ten pretty decent sized potatoes in a 5# bag, and as a part of a meal, a whole potato is quite a bit. A pound should easily serve one adult and one kid, so 15 pounds ought to do it, with a couple more tossed in for good measure.
Now you got me thinking. I think I'll try a couple potatoes and some really juicy cut of beef ribeye, all in the crockpot. Yes, directly on the potatoes. I don't know cooking times right offhand, but I'd imagine at least 4-5 hours or more on low heat would cook everything thoroughly.

Nothing could be easier....peel potatoes first it's not hard. 1/2 or 1/4 them and throw in boiling water lightly salted if you like. Boil until a knife test shows they are as cooked as you like. You don't want potatoes to be mush for potato salad but I hate undercooked potatoes. Nothing wrong with baked potatoes either (or microwaved).
I've been buying canned Yams/sweet potatoes at the supermarket for awhile now and the cans actually say 'Yams' and 'Sweet Potatoes' too. So until just now I thought they were the same thing until reading that orange sweet potatoes are more healthy than yams and that they are indeed different. Please help clear up this confusion. Thanks!
Gonna slap a steak on the grill. Slow-heating overnight in the tiny crockpot beef-barley-veggie stew I made for work thermoses a couple of months ago with some extra gravy to make it less dry.

Thinly sliced potatoes Thinly sliced onion Spices if desired (salt, black pepper, or cayenne or curry powder or whatever) Each serving wrapped in lightly oiled (inside only!) foil, with the onions on the bottom, then the potatoes, then the beef.
