- (ar lean ón leathanach roimhe)For a pit we make a flat place between two ridges by filling in the clay to the furrow.
We heap the potatoes there to a height of about two feet slanting on each side towards the top.
We cover them with dry rushes and clay to protect them from frost.
We set Champions, Kerr’s Pinks, Arran Banners, Epicures, Lumpers, Irish Queens, and British Queens. We like Champions best for our own use as they are very dry and ‘floury’.
Long ago people made ‘boxty’ bread. When they squeezed the water out of the ‘grated’ raw potatoes they allowed this to remain in a vessel for some time and the sediment that formed at the bottom was used instead of starch and sometimes it was added to the mixture when making the bread.
