Aw shucks, thanks Maddisun

RH - I phoned my mom, she says that if you freeze potato chunks (in stews ect) that don't thaw so good. Nothing wrong with freezing it, but when thawed she finds it unappetizing So maybe if you mash it and use it as a topping like shepard's pie, the milk/butter or what ever you mashed it with makes it thaw better ... again

So I googled potatoes and freeze and here is what I got - google makes me smart

--Potatoes cooked in soups and stews (they become mushy and may darken. If using potatoes, cook until barely soft and still firm; then freeze quickly.)
