When rehydrating those dried mashed potatoes, what is the ratio for potatoes/water or milk? I have a bunch but haven't used them because I didn't know how. I just add my milk and butter in a pan, then add spuds when hot. put a lid on, and turn the fire off or low for a while. yeah I have dried mashed spuds, also canned them, and we are pleased with both.

when you doing them , just spray with lemon juice. to keep them nice and white, or add citric acid, either one, or both.

How to Can Potatoes
Wash, drain and peel 2 to 3 pounds of potatoes per quart of canned potatoes.
Leave the smaller potatoes intact, and cut the larger potatoes into quarters.
Place the potatoes into a large pan, cover with water and bring to a boil. Boil for 10 minutes, and then drain but conserve the boiling water. Put the hot potatoes into properly prepared pint- or quart-sized canning jars, leaving 1inch of headspace (open space) regardless of jar size. If you like, you can add a 1/2 teaspoon of salt to each pint jar, or 1 teaspoon salt to each quart.
Add the boiling water to cover the potatoes making sure to maintain the 1 inch headspace, and remove all air bubbles using your bubble wand.
Finger tighten one properly prepared lid and band on each jar.
Place jars into a the pressure canner. Process your pints for 35 minutes and the quarts for 40 minutes at 10 pounds pressure.
