America's most popular vegetable, potatoes can be boiled, baked,
fried, microwaved, steamed, or roasted, with or without their
peels. They're often paired with butter, sour cream, or oil, but
left to themselves they're quite low in calories and loaded with
nutrients.
Store them in a cool, dark, dry, well-ventilated place. Don't
refrigerate them--doing so converts some of the potato's starch to
sugar. And don't expose them to direct sunlight, which turns them
green and makes them bitter. Scrape away any sprouts or green
spots, since they might contain a mildly toxic compound called
solanine.
