I would double down on my perception of the original joke's hilarity if I didn't fear the likelihood of becoming persona au gratin around here.

Before I opened this thread to find out what it was about I already had googled my favourite potato recipeHere it is:https://www.chinasichuanfood.com/spicy-and-sour-potato/It's really good if you totally omit the spicy red peppers, but leave in the sichuan peppercorns, for a flavour that I've been told is more authentically Szechuan-- numbing, but not spicy; 麻, but not 辣― flamboyant goon tie included, Wednesday, August 1, 2018 7:05 PM (forty-six minutes ago) Bookmark Flag Post Permalink

It's really good if you totally omit the spicy red peppers, but leave in the sichuan peppercorns, for a flavour that I've been told is more authentically Szechuan-- numbing, but not spicy; 麻, but not 辣

This is the main way I eat potato now, due to Chinese family (from Hubei, so spicy but not mouth-numbing) (really wish there were a better way to say it in English, mouth-numbing does not work). I like it a lot but it's often a lot less cooked than I was previously used to, I thought raw potatoes were poisonous for some reason. Anyway, it's really good, but not quite as good as some really good mash imo.

xp not an accursed thread, I would like further input on different ways to cook the humble yet versatile starchy, tuberous root of the perennial nightshade Solanum tuberosum.

I thought raw potatoes were poisonous for some reason.
They are in the nightshade family, which has some poisonous members. To quote Wikipedia:
Many members of the family contain potent alkaloids, and some are highly toxic, but many, including tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, bell/chili peppers, and tobacco are widely used.
