The number of potatoes will depend on the number of people and the size of the potatoes. You should use around one fist-sized portion of potatoes (before you start, that is) plus "one for the pot". If the people being served are fairly voracious, you may want to increase the rate to three potatoes for every two people, or something like one each and 3 or 4 for the pot.

∙ 13y agodepends on the size. Some are large and some are small. Best thing is to put them together and kind of size the food up as a whole. Imagine it being reduced by a small fraction to compensate for the space between the potatoes on the countertop

∙ 14y agoIf you have big eaters, do 2 potatoe per person. So that would be 32 potatoes. If you do not have big eaters, do 1 potato per person. For a happy medium, try 20-25 potatoes.

How many pounds of potatoes equal to 7 cups?
A peck of potatoes weighs about 10 pounds, this is about 8 quarts or 16 pints US dry measure. so a cup which is a liquid measure is about 7/8 of a dry half pint, or about .27 pounds per cup of whole potatoes. The volume of potatoes can be reduced by chopping or grating them. So that 1 cup of potatoes weighs about 3/4 pound grated or about 1/2 pound chopped. So 1 lb of chopped potatoes is about 2 cups more or less, and 1 1/2 cups or so if grated. The type of potato will change these measurements a bit.
