If potatoes only sprout a little, they are edible in theory, but we need to clean up the sprouting place and peel off its skin.

It is very simple to say, but it is not so easy to do. If it is not handled well, some toxins will remain.

For those potatoes with a little longer buds, it doesn't mean that they can't be eaten, because the solanine in potatoes is soluble in water. We cut potatoes into pieces or shredded potatoes and soak them in cold water for more than half an hour, and then rinse them with water to wash them off.

Moreover, when frying potatoes, the potatoes must be cooked, so that the toxins can be effectively dissolved, because what Solanum nigrum is most afraid of is acidic substances or high-temperature heat, and less vinegar can be added when frying potatoes to play a double protection role.
