I’ll start: pesto as a bagel topping.
I love eating a raw potato like an apple, for whatever reason. Any time I’m cooking a dish with potatoes, I’ll wash and peel one for me to eat. My boyfriend looked like I had grown a third arm the first time he saw me do it.
It’s the perfect mix of crunchy and juicy, but not sweet.
Raw potatoes are like semi toxic. Do you not get any GI upset from doing that?
No, never. AFAIK they aren’t toxic, just that the starch is poorly digested. Either way, I’ve never gotten sick from it, so 🤷
It’s odd because I have had digestive issues off and on through the years, but the potatoes have never precipitated it. (It’s mostly anything spicy, which sucks as I love spicy food-- it’s a price I pay willingly sometimes)
Solanine is a glycoalkaloid poison found in species of the nightshade family within the genus Solanum, such as the potato, the tomato, and the eggplant
Raw potatoes certainly are mildly toxic, it’s not just undigestible starches.
