Excitement with Potatoes

While it may sound rather like an oxymoron, I assure you that it is true: potatoes can be rather exciting at times. Like when you boil them for a half an hour. Then they char and coat the bottom of the pan with a lovely shade of black. Don't put bleach on it. Baking soda works best. Also, potatoes that have been thus treated tend to make rather tasty mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
