You Have to cover the potatoes with water or evev better awater to which you have added a spoonful of fruit-fresh (ciutric acid_ or powdered vitamin c, In the morning, mash the water out vigorouly in a strainer and dry on paper towels, or you get spatters and sogs. Soaking actually removes a bit of starch which is a good thing. You know not to use new or redskin potaoes? Ellen

I am roasting 50 lbs of new potatoes in 2 seperate roasters for a rehearsal dinner.
For elegance, I would like to remove the peel just around the center. Can I do this the
night before, cover them in water, and then
drain the next morning??
What would be the best recipe for the job. It is a sidekick to pork loin & prime rib.
