Potatoes starting to get a green coat
I know that potatoes with considerable green outer layer are poisonous so I always discard those, but sometimes I'd have a basket of a couple of pounds or so, that have not been kept in a completely dark place and develop a slight greenish tint fairly quickly (especially spring potatoes). I usually peel those thicker (even though I usually only wash new potatoes with a brush) , but sometimes they still seem to have a sourish taste. I was wondering if anyone happens to have an advice on what could be done? Any kitchen tricks that can reverse the traces of the process? Thanks.

As long as you have extra yard space, that may not be such a bad idea, Panfusine. I guess if the solanine's main purpose is to keep bugs away, then maybe these would give a successful harvest at least.
