Potatoes were introduced outside the Andes region four centuries ago, and have become an integral part of much of the world's cuisine.

Potatoes are occasionally referred to as " Irish potatoes " or " white potatoes " in the United States, to distinguish them from sweet potatoes.

Potatoes yield abundantly with little effort, and adapt readily to diverse climates as long as the climate is cool and moist enough for the plants to gather sufficient water from the soil to form the starchy tubers.

Potatoes do not keep very well in storage and are vulnerable to molds that feed on the stored tubers, quickly turning them rotten.

Potatoes are often broadly classified as high on the glycemic index ( GI ) and so are often excluded from the diets of individuals trying to follow a low-GI diet.

Potatoes are sensitive to heavy frosts, which damage them in the ground.

Potatoes are usually cured after harvest to improve skin-set.

* Potatoes are used to brew alcoholic beverages such as vodka, potcheen, or akvavit.

* Potatoes ( mainly Russets ) are commonly used in plant research.

Potatoes are prepared in many ways: skin-on or peeled, whole or cut up, with seasonings or without.

Potatoes are boiled between 10 and 25 minutes, depending on size and type, to become soft.

The hybrids were crossed back onto the original Amaryllis belladonna and with each other to produce naturally seed bearing crosses that come in a very wide range of flower sizes, shapes, stem heights and intensities of pink.

By inserting separate, successive sections of V. cholerae DNA into the DNA of other bacteria, such as E. coli that would not naturally produce the protein toxins, researchers have investigated the mechanisms by which V. cholerae responds to the changing chemical environments of the stomach, mucous layers, and intestinal wall.

A turbocharged engine can produce significantly more power than a naturally aspirated engine of the same configuration, as having more air in the cylinders allows more fuel to be burned and thus more power to be produced.

As turbocharged or supercharged engines produce more power for a given engine size as compared to naturally aspirated engines, attention must be paid to the mechanical design of components, lubrication, and cooling to handle the power.

Recent research has found that the oyster mushroom naturally contains the cholesterol-lowering drug lovastatin, mushrooms produce large amounts of vitamin D when exposed to UV light, and that certain fungi may be a future source of taxol.

For instance, the naturally occurring citric and ascorbic acids in lemon or other citrus juice can inhibit the action of the enzyme phenolase which turns surfaces of cut apples and potatoes brown if a small amount of the juice is applied to the freshly cut produce.

Supersymmetric GUTs seem plausible not only for their theoretical " beauty ", but because they naturally produce large quantities of dark matter, and because the inflationary force may be related to GUT physics ( although it does not seem to form an inevitable part of the theory ).

Pilots would like to take advantage of the low drag at high altitudes in order to go faster, but a naturally aspirated engine will not produce enough power at the same altitude to do so.

This laboratory uses mainly proton spallation of uranium carbide targets to produce a wide range of radioactive fission fragments that are not found naturally on earth.

:" Words are to the Anthropologist what rolled pebbles are to the Geologist — battered relics of past ages often containing within them indelible records capable of intelligent interpretation — and when we see what amount of change 2000 years has been able to produce in the languages of Greece & Italy or 1000 in those of Germany France & Spain we naturally begin to ask how long a period must have lapsed since the Chinese, the Hebrew, the Delaware & the Malesass had a point in common with the German & Italian & each other — Time!

Submarine springs found along the coast of Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula produce water with a naturally low pH ( a measure of acidity ) providing conditions similar to those expected to become widespread as the oceans absorb carbon dioxide.

Such a separation appears to have taken place, but dates based on such methods can only produce an estimate of the latest possible date for domestication without excluding the possibility of an unknown period of earlier gene-flow between wild and domestic populations ( which will occur naturally as long as the domesticated population is kept within the habitat of the wild population ).

A mirage is a naturally occurring optical phenomenon in which light rays are bent to produce a displaced image of distant objects or the sky.

Some grape varieties, such as Muscat, Ortega and Huxelrebe, naturally produce a lot more sugar than others.

Indeed, the nuclear reactions in stars produce every naturally occurring chemical element.

Carnations do not naturally produce the pigment delphinidin, thus a blue carnation cannot occur by natural selection or be created by traditional plant breeding.

These peculiar fungi naturally produce a number of molecules that resemble human neurochemicals, and first appear as small fibres ( mycelia ) that resemble hoarfrost.

Wetland systems naturally produce an array of vegetation and other ecological products that can harvested for personal and commercial use.

As with all distilled spirits, yeast or naturally occurring bacteria ( such as Zymomonas mobilis ) is used to ferment a sugar source to produce alcohol ; the alcohol is then extracted through the process of distillation.

Not all individual oysters produce pearls naturally.

Further, whenever one quality reaches its peak, it will naturally begin to transform into the opposite quality: for example, grain that reaches its full height in summer ( fully yang ) will produce seeds and die back in winter ( fully yin ) in an endless cycle.

Vegetative reproduction occurs naturally in some species that produce stolons or when roots come close to the surface of the soil.

Chlorine can react with naturally occurring organic compounds found in the water supply to produce compounds known as disinfection byproducts ( DBPs ).

On the other hand, because of the inherent inefficiency of club good provision, it is sometimes preferable to treat even naturally excludable club goods as public goods, and produce them by some other mechanism.

Milk that has been left to sour ( raw milk alone or pasteurized milk with added lactic acid bacteria or yeast ) will also naturally produce curds, and sour milk cheese is produced this way.
