What is your favorite starch and how do you like it prepared?

Potatoes.
Boil them, mash them, stick them in a stew.

It’s almost impossible for me to pick one.

When I was a kid I think I would have said potatoes.

Now, I might say rice, but pasta is right up there too. I like white rice best. It’s the yummiest when made with some salt, a little garlic, and oil or shortening, but I like sticky rice too. I love rice with steak, pork, chicken, lamb, almost every type of protein. Almost all dishes that Americans typically put with potatoes I often prefer with rice. Most American restaurants don’t have a plain rice option. I don’t think I’ve ever been to an American steakhouse that has a white rice side option.

The only things I don’t eat with rice is Italian dishes that have a red sauce, which I believe are better served with pasta, and if I have mear with gravy, like sliced turkey.

I even like hotdogs with rice.

Potatoes.
Boiled, mashed, fried, baked, peeled or unpeeled.
Bintjes, Eigenheimers, Elstar, Diamond, ‘Parisians’, ‘krieltjes’.

If I had to choose between rice and pasta, I guess it would have to be pasta. I could eat pasta every day if it wouldn’t lead to morbid obesity.

French bread. I love it but have not had it in a long time.

I get teeth on Thursday.. Finally. Dentures take a long time to get made when you are poor.

When I can chew again the first thing I am eating is crazy bread from little ceasers.

Rice.
Classic jasmine white.

Starchky and Husk corn soup. Love it.

Potatoes…I just love them. A couple of days each week I put two small potatoes in the crock pot a couple hours before I want to eat. I don’t even have a plan, but by dinner I think of something to do with them. I even like them just cut with salt and pepper.

mashed potatoes with cheese! Roasted potatoes made with garlic is also a close second.
