Kitchen Hint of the Day!
Love them Spuds.....
Potatoes are stuffed with phytonutrients, which are organic components of plants that are thought to promote health, according to the USDA. Phytonutrients in potatoes include carotenoids, flavonoids and caffeic acid.
The vitamin C in potatoes acts as an antioxidant. These substances may prevent or delay some types of cell damage, according to the National Institutes of Health. They may also help with digestion, heart health, blood pressure and even cancer prevention.

One Potato, two potato,......
Never refrigerate potatoes, because that tends to turn potato starch to sugar. Potatoes will last longer and remain solid longer if they are stored away from light in a cool, dry spot, preferably at 45-50 degrees. If white potatoes are stored below 40 degrees, they tend to release more sugar and turn sweet. Air must circulate around potatoes; otherwise, moisture will cause them to decay.
