    Penn Jilette, one of the magicians from the “Penn & Teller” duo, lost 100 libra pondo’s from eating nothing but potatoes. If you prepare potatoes correctly you can create resistent starch as well which is better for your blood sugar, so it really is a versatile vegetable. It has lots of potassium too.

        Can they then be reheated or are we doomed to eating cold potatoes if we want resistant starches?

    I thought the right picture was garlic confit at first which I’m currently making. Was going to put in on ciabatta but now I’m thinking of doing something like potato skins but with provolone.
