The Potato Museum Show
Приєднався 17 кві 2010
Seriously? Yes, indeed. The Potato Museum was established in 1975, by teacher Tom Hughes and his students at the International School of Brussels, in Belgium. One of the first “food museums” anywhere in the world, it grew from there, and today comprises the world's largest collection on the history and social influence of the powerful potato.
Its artifacts, artwork and objects have been key to three major exhibitions: “Seeds of Change,” produced by the Smithsonian in the early 90s; at the same time, “The Amazing Potato,” a 6500 square foot project of Ottawa’s Museum of Science and Technology; and back in Washington, DC, in 2010, “Spuds Unearthed!” put on by the US Botanic Garden on the Mall. Next up? A major project with a team in Northern Ireland.

Baked Potatoes: Fun & Surprising
Переглядів 4816 годин тому
Ever since people have been growing potatoes, they've eaten them baked or roasted. This show begins showing a Peruvian family harvesting their potatoes and baking/roasting some of them in an earth oven they built out of earth clods. Dried potato vines were used as fuel to heat the inside of the oven. Potatoes were poured in and the entire roof was collapsed to hasten the cooking. The baked/roas...

A months back we planted sprouting organic Russet Burbank (baking potatoes) we didn't get around to eating in one of our grow bags. So before we harvest the last of the grow bags we planted at the beginning of summer Tom adds soil around the base of the growing plants to encourage more underground stalk growth out from which the plant will produce the tubers. The potatoes we eat are actually th...

These were planted in early summer and not mid-Spring which would have been ideal. Also we used rather poor potting soil which was also less than ideal and not loose and a bit sandy. Furthermore we used no fertilizers. So it was all an experiment for us who know a lo...
