I also like them cooked, then mashed coarsely and sauteed with a bit of
butter or bacon fat and a very small amount of fresh garlic, salt, and
pepper. I saute the mashed mixture to reduce some of the excess moisture.

I always try to include them, cut in thin half disks or strips, on a
platter of crudité.

They also make a tasty and unusual sandwich when sliced very thin, on a
nice dark rye with sweet butter.
