Potatoes Cookbooks and Recipes
Potatoes are a starchy vegetable crop that comes from tubers.
They are originally from South America, but have been introduced
to many other countries and regions around the world, and thus
are now the most tuber crop in the world, and along with
corn (maize), rice, and wheat, are one of the world's leading
food crops.
Numerous countries around the world, have now made potatoes
into an important part of their cuisine. Sometimes, they are eaten
side dish, sometimes as snacks, and sometimes staple food. Potatoes
are of course also frequently used as ingredient in many other dishes.
Some potato recipes and dishes include:
- Ajiaco - This Colombian recipe
for potato soup is made using two or more kinds of native potatoes.
It also contains chicken on the bone, and corn on the cob,
and it s flavored using guasca which is a local herb somewhat reminiscent
of oregano. Just before eating,
avocado, capers, and cream are added to the soup, and it is then
served over white rice.
- Colcannon - This Irish recipe is made
from mashed potatoes with garlic, cabbage or kale.
- French fries - These are potatoes which have been skinned, cut into
pieces, and then deep-fried. In the
United Kingdom,
they are usually known as "chips", although the word "fries"
is also sometimes used.
In the
United States,
following a political dispute with
France,
there was for a time a movement to retitle the dish "freedom fries".
- Hash Browns - Fried, grated potatoes, sometimes
with onion or egg, and often made into patties. Hash browns are often
eaten as a side dish with cooked breakfasts, especially in the
United States.
- Mashed potato - Potatoes
boiled and then mashed, usually with butter, milk or cream added into
the mix. This is a popular side dish
in British cuisine, and some other countries'
too. Mashed potatoes are also used as an ingredient in a variety of other
recipes too.
- Papa rellena - This is a Peruvian recipe.
It is made from mashed potatoes stuffed with ground meat and spices, and is
cooked by deep frying.
- Papas a la Huancaína - Another Peruvian recipe.
It is made from sliced potatoes on a bed of lettuce with olives,
and spicy cheese sauce.
- Potato chips - Thin slices of potato, deep-fried or baked until crisp,
and often eaten as a snack food.
While it is possible to make your own, most people tend to buy them ready-made
in packets.
In the
United Kingdom,
they are usually known as "crisps" (since the word "chips"
generally refers to French fries), and come in many different flavors.
In the
United States,
crushed potato chips are sometimes used as an ingredient in recipes.
- Poutine - This dish from Québec, has become one
Canadian cuisine's best known dishes.
