Question: How many potatoes for about 75 people, I am going to use the russet potato!.!?
Answers:
Appetites and the actual dish would help determining but as a general rule when doing parties, banquets, I would say 5 ounces on the low to 7-8 ounces each person on the high!. So just over a 1/4 pound to 1/2 pound!. Or from 20lbs on the low to 40lbs on the very high!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Depends upon how you're going to prepare the potatoes!. Baked!? You need 75!. Casserole!? You can probably get by with less!. Fried!? You'll need more than 75!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
For mashed you will need one large or two smaller potatoes per person!. If some of the people are big potato eaters then use more!.
