Dried mashed potatoes are pretty good to thicken stew. And dont get me started on shepherds pie. Stock up St. Patrick’s day is around the corner.
I don’t eat potatoes, but I recently dehydrated about 10 lbs of cauliflower florets...which I sub for potatoes.
But, you’re right....instant mashers make great thickener for soups/stews.
In an uncertain world, eat dessert first. St David's Day is March 1st. Potato leek soup and Welsh cakes are traditional items. St Patrick's Day follows on March 17th. Pick up the corned beef, cabbage, potatoes and Guinness now.
