Quick ......before I puree my potatoes!!!!

[dizzymama]

I'm sure I recall some friends telling me that Anabel Karmel(sp?)suggests you don't puree potatoes but mash them through a sieve instead. Can anyone tell me why? I pureed the first lot but am reticent to do this lot without knowing why!

They go like glue - really horrid.

it can go VERY gloopy if you blend/puree it - not very nice (I tried it once before I even had kids to make 'mashed potato' - it then went straight into the bin before even hitting the dinner plate

So if she likes it done that way is it ok to feed it to her? Don't want to poison the baby!!!

yes if she likes it - it's not dangerous - just doesn't taste (or look IMO) very nice

It won't poison her, no.

Get a potato ricer though - they're fab.

Thanks guys!
QOQ I agree it looks hideous but Dd seems to lap it up and it's much easier!

SD what on earth is one of those? (I love a good kitchen gadget!)
