Both dignitaries and ordinary people should have eaten potatoes. Potatoes are a kind of food that is very close to people. In eastern Sichuan, potatoes are called potato, which reminds people of many things related to foreign characters, such as Yanghuo (matches), Yangmaer (bicycles), etc. Some places call it yam egg, which is very interesting. It is said that the first person who ate potatoes was in Sweden. In order to commemorate him, people built a bronze statue for him in the central square. Like the first person who ate tomatoes and crabs, they bought everyone's taste with courage.
Potatoes are very common in Sichuan, and sweet potatoes and potatoes are essential in rural areas. Some of the potatoes my grandmother planted were red. At that time, I only thought they were more beautiful than ordinary potatoes. Now I know that the nutrition is much higher. Digging potatoes requires skill and proper force. Go down with a hoe, turn up a nest of potatoes, shake the excess mud, pull it out one by one, throw it into the basket, and continue digging. A novice, however, who hoes deeply and shallowly, often separates potatoes and immediately feels a sense of guilt. The broken potatoes are not easy to preserve, and they are also the first to be eaten. If the skin of the potato is green, or if it has sprouted after being placed for too long, it will contain solanesin, so it is better not to eat it to avoid poisoning.
Stir fried shredded potatoes, green pepper shredded potatoes, braised potatoes in brown sauce, fried chicken with potatoes... There are so many dishes made with potatoes that they are delicious. It can not only be the protagonist with confidence, but also be a supporting role conscientiously. It can be skillful in various occasions. Sometimes I feel that being a man should be like learning from potatoes.
My father likes to slice Sichuan style bacon, stir it with garlic, mix some boiled water, put the potato chips washed with starch into it, and stew it with bacon without turning it around. When the juice in the pot is drained, a fragrant farm style dish will be ready. The boiled water should not be mixed too much. It is appropriate to make the potatoes mature. The taste of potatoes is soft and full, with the aroma of bacon. It is always very kind and warm in retrospect.
Shredded potato pancakes are also popular snacks or breakfast, but many people have never tried them. The potato cake without flour has a stronger potato flavor.
Do not wash the shredded potato because it does not contain flour. Use the viscosity of the potato starch to make it into a cake.
