can you eat potato
To salvage a green-tinged potato, youâll need to perform ruthless surgery. Cut away the sprouts, the eyes, and every part of the potato that contains a trace of green. Solanine and its related alkaloids are most concentrated just beneath the skin, so paring it to a depth of at least 1/4 inch should render the potatoes safe to eat. The alkaloids are noticeably bitter in flavor, so if you find your potatoes are bitter even after peeling you should not eat them.
