be kept in mind: First, that smooth
potatoes are more desirable than
rough ones, because they are more
easily prepared, and less loss is in
volved in the pairing. Second, that
tubers which have been exposed to
light for any considerable period soon
acquires a more or less acrid taste I;
for this reason, newly harvested pota-
toes, if mature, are preferable for the
winters supply to those which have
been kept for any considerable per-
iod under unsuitable conditions.
Third, that very large potatoes are not
especially desirable, partly on account
of the greater length Of time required
to cook them uniformly, and partly be.
cause they are often very variable in
texture. Fourth, a good potato should
be firm and crisp when cut, and a
thin cross section when held between
the eye and the light should show a
relatively Uniform distribution of
starch throughout its whole area, as
opposed to a large, translucent, wat.
cry, central area which denotes n lack
Of starch in this portion Of the tuber.
The even distribution of starch in
surcs greater uniformity in cooking
and in texture of the flesh when
cooked.
If lot is not uniform, il is often
worth while to sort them and use the
large ones with roast meats, or at
other times when the oven need not
be especially heated and save the
small ones for occasions when quick
cooking is more convenient. When
the potatoes are very large, or time
is pressing, it is often desirable to in
crease the surface exposed to the heat
by cutting them in pieces before cook.

they will cook very quickly and may
