Bunch of ways to handle that chore. Essential elements are brisk air flow and some way to keep the bugs off. Electric food dehydrator works well. Electric home oven can be used. Trick is keep the heat at 140 or less. Normally accomplished by setting the oven as low as it will go..and propping the oven door open to the first notch. Keep a small fan blowing on it helps a bunch too. Need to move the goods around a bit so it dries evenly..remember its a drying process..not a cooking process. When you move into lighter colored stuff it helps to dip in ascorbic acid or vit C to keep it from discoloring. Kale is green already I think so shouldnt hurt to discolor that. Best of fortunes. Dehydrating stuff is a lot of fun and is a good way to store up food for when Obie wrecks the economy.

Kale chips are easy. Wash your Kale, remove any large ribs and cut into
bite sized chunks. Then coat very lightly with some olive oil and put them
in a low oven. I saw Jacques Pepin do these and he said the low oven was
key. Like 300 degrees or lower. They take about 20 minutes in there.

You can also make these in a food dehydrator. Again, the low temp is key.
In the dehydrator you'll want to use about 110 degrees. And of course they
will take much longer to dry.

I think you will find dozens of recipes for kale chips.
You're right, they cost a lot to buy, but they aren't
hard to make.

This is the general method:

I was looking around that site. Have you looked at the one for Fast mashed
potato? That is how I always do mine. How does anyone else do it
differently to make it NOT easy mash?? Anybody?

I looked but did not see the recipe. The only times I had trouble with
mashed potatoes were when I was in a hurry. The first time was sheer
stupidity on my part. Should have made instant but maybe didn't have any?
Can't remember. Was years ago. Needed to get a Shepherd's pie in the oven
and didn't have it made ahead of time. Using my old Home Ec teacher's
theory of cutting them small to cook faster, I put them through the food
processor. Shredded them. They seemed to get soft in a hurry. Mashed
them. Seemed okay. Until we tasted the finished dish. Raw! Bad mistake.

The next time I cooked whole Yukon Golds, skin and all. Have done this
before but cut them at least in half. But these were tiny ones and
apparently too new. And the skin was what tripped me up. Seemed tough.
Did not want to mash at all. But I also had a pretty lame masher at the
time. Many people poked fun at me here not only for the potatoes (said I
didn't cook them enough) but also for my masher mistake. The good masher I
had, broke. I replaced it but it had a plastic mashing "head" on it and it
was no match for these potatoes. So I had found one online at a place that
sells to Amish and the like. Did not realize at the time how large it was!
Still have it. Has like a broom handle on it and a huge head. It does work
and works well but... You need a ton of potatoes and a very large pot to be
able to use it. You also have to put the pot on the floor because of the
super long handle. I can't remember what I resorted to with these things.
I think I had to take a knife to them to cut them up and then use a mixer
which I hate doing. The end result was too creamy but with lumps in it.

My mom's masher is the type that I hate. Hers has the single thick wire
that snakes back and forth. Totally inefficient in my book. I prefer the
one that looks sort of like a waffle with holes in it. Do have a good one
now.

What specifically did they say to do that makes the potatoes fast? I know
some people say to heat the milk and butter first but I never do that. I
just keep them on the heat. That's if I use liquid milk. I've found that I
get much richer flavor by reserving some of the cooking water, using
powdered milk then adding some of the water back in.

I also looked and didn't see it. I'm curious as to what they said though.
Can you post the method/recipe they said, Ophelia?

I'm beginning to suspect she was using the UK FN site and that it has
a different set of recipes.

Agreed. My mom also used that squiggly wire one. I also use the one you
described...looks like a waffle with holes in it. That works very well.

Not good masher that our moms used:

I cut up potatoes and boil them until soft. Drain the water and add in some
warm milk and butter, then mash them. I just guess at the amount and
occasionally I might add a little too much milk. A good way to fix that is
to have a box of instant mashed potatoes on hand. Just add a little of that
to bring the potatoes back to a firmer texture.

I prefer the squiggly lined one-- and I like lumps in my potatoes. IMO
they are bland and textureless-- a little lumpiness keeps them
interesting.

I love that one. Cook your potatoes properly and it does a fantastic
job. Don't cook them right and you'll blame the masher because of
course, you're infallible.

I have that one too. Hate it for mashed potatoes, but it's great for
mashing cauliflower.

What I've discovered over years of sporadically making mashed potatoes
is that they need to be cooked longer than I'd cook them for "smashed"
potato on a plate and significantly longer than I'd cook them for
potato salad. When they are cooked properly, they mash/whip up
quickly and beautifully with just the hand masher and there are no
lumps what-so-ever. I hate skins in my mashed potato, so that's never
an issue for me.

I hate skins for mashed with russets but not the others.

I saw someone on TV make their mashers by cutting into smallish
pieces, and then cooked them in the milk or half & half- not too much
liquid. They then mashed it all in the pan and added butter, salt, and
pepper. I have done this a few times and it works well if you don't
have too much liquid in the pan to begin with.

When I searched their site for "fast mashed potatoes" I got 9 hits-
none of which were for mashed potatoes.

But-- I [sometimes] peel, cut to chunks, boil [or steam if I care to]-
then smush with butter/milk [and whatever else strikes my fancy].

I *have* mashed a microwaved potato- and it works for me-- but I use a
lot of butter in my mashed potatoes because I'm not all that fond of
spuds.

I used those exact search words and got potato recipes but none that said
"fast".

Oh flip I already posted it... It's actually 'mashed potato fast'. I'll see
if I can find it again. But really, what is shows is so simple, I was
wondering if anyone else here makes it more complicated!

Ok here it is:

I think I have metric on the brain, did I hear him mention cutting
the potatoes into INCHes?? Looking it up, I see we're not the only
