Can you peel potatoes 24hrs ahead?

yes, While working as a sous chef, it was not unusual to peel 2 days worth of potatoes at one time, add a little salt and lemon juice to a container of water and store the potatoes in the cooler or refrigerator. Just make sure they are covered with the water. We would prepare the water before peeling so as soon as it potatoe was peeled rinsed and cut it went right into the water.

What caused the inside of the potato pancakes to turn black after frying and then freezing and reheating them?

I apologize for not being able to provide a definite answer for your question. However, I think I may be able to help. When you say the pancakes turn black, does the taste change with them? Assuming you re-heat with the microwave, it is possible that because microwaves heat food from the inside, that in order to obtain the temperature you desire on the outside edges, you are burning the inside of the pancakes. Again, this is just the best guess I can make with the information provided. My suggestions would be to either let the pancakes thaw out in the fridge before heating them or to use a toaster instead. Hope I helped. Zilduli
