As a side dish 25 lbs of sweet potatoes should be enough for 70 people
Well, darling, if you're making candied sweet potatoes for 70 people, you'll need roughly 35 pounds of sweet potatoes. That's about half a pound per person, assuming they all want a decent serving. So, get those taters ready and make sure you have plenty of brown sugar and marshmallows to go around!
Sweet Potatoes must be cured once they're harvested. Wash and let dry in the sun. You can place the sweet potatoes on newspaper in a shaded place where temperatures are between 70 and 80 degrees. The top of the refrigerator should be fine. Do not refrigerate the sweet potatoes or they'll rot. Store in this warm spot until the potatoes harden, usually in just a few weeks.
Fifteen pounds of red potatoes can typically serve around 30-40 people as a side dish, depending on portion sizes. If serving as a main component of a meal, it may not be enough for 70-75 people. To adequately feed that many, you would likely need at least 30-35 pounds of potatoes. Adjustments can be made based on the overall menu and other dishes served.
China produces around 70 million metric tons of potatoes annually.
The number of potatoes that make up 70 grams can vary significantly depending on the size and type of potato. On average, a medium-sized potato weighs around 150-200 grams, so you would typically need about half of a medium potato to reach 70 grams. Smaller potatoes may weigh around 100 grams each, meaning you would need about two smaller potatoes. For precise measurements, it's best to weigh the potatoes directly.
