Potatoes... Are these edible?

This is probably a stupid question, but I dug these up today as I have had enough of fighting with the slugs lol. The flowers were coming about a week or so ago but got chewed off. These earlies are only really small but there's definitely a meal. I think they were supposed to be much larger but they'll have to do. My question is...are they still ok to eat at this size? I am assuming they would just take like new potatoes :-) my fish cakes are on standby....

 

look fine to me , if me I would pan fry them wont take long and go nice with your fish cakes

Nothing wrong ,with them ,just right size for new spuds (mouth waters) Do plenty then what you have left over fry next morning and have with bacon and eggs enjoy

 

You've been here long enough to know there is no such thing as a "stupid question"

Should taste like new potatoes, but, it does depend on what they were when you planted them (or, if they are 'volunteer' potatoes ) I say that because, each of the past 3 years I have had potatoes grow in my garden: but, I've never planted any! So, I only ever get "volunteer" potatoes. Consequently, some taste like new potatoes and some go mushier - like "old" potatoes. Either way, they make a meal

Enjoy your produce and tell us how they cooked up!

 

They look scrumptious , pass me the butter someone please....

I've seen them sold that size in supermarkets, go for it!

 

Cook them. Eat them. Enjoy them !

 

They were delicious! The taste was like nothing I've ever bought in the shops...they really do taste better when you grow your own. Am having a stab at sweet corn and cucumbers this year...oh and runner beans and mini peppers!
