Publishers Text

The Incas called potatoes: "Gift of the Gods", since it grew in altitudes above 15,000 feet where heartier vegetables like corn would not grow. The Incas also knew how to preserve potatoes through a process of dehydration, giving them a potato chip-like quality, which could then be eaten all-year long. Today potatoes have become an affordable, nutritious vegetable in kitchens across the world both in simple and very sophisticated dishes. You'll find soups, casseroles, mashed and fried potatoes, baked potatoes, potato salads, sauces and dips, as well as cookies and cakes in this tasty revival of an old, but deliciously-tempting favourite.
