Question
How long should I blanch large potato cubes?
When blanching large cubes of potatoes, you'll want to cook them for about 4 to 6 minutes in boiling water. The key is to partially cook them, so they’re tender but still firm enough to hold their shape. After blanching, quickly transfer them to an ice water bath to stop the cooking process.
Keep in mind that the exact time can vary depending on the size of your cubes. If your cubes are on the larger side, aim for the full 6 minutes. After blanching, you can either freeze them or finish cooking them in your final dish.
