      - your portion of sliced garlic on top
      - salt
      Very good against common cold, when getting sick.
      Germans absolutely h8 this trick (honestly its a gag how they cant stand a garlic breath)
      For some reason butter neutralizes the spiciness on the tongue and the after-breath.

    When Boris said to keep your day job and tend to your passions as a hobby, I listened. I can see the results are quite good so far. I'm liking this vibe Boris has now where he combines his old vulgar version and new family friendly version but has this don't give a fuck descending into madness kinda vibe. I think his work gives him more creative freedom and prevents him from burnout. I'm looking forward to one of those eventual warm and fuzzy feeling videos though. Yeah sure we might not see him so often but I think he made the best choice for his life.

    Fun Fact! The reason soaking them in ice water changes the potato slices so much is because doing so causes the excess startch in the potato, which normally inhibits the ability for the potato to cook evenly, and the reason why you use cold water specifically is because hot water would activate the startch

      My grandma used to make pierogi by hand every Christmas, Thanksgiving and easter. The best part was the "noodles" she made when the filling ran out. She always made cheese and potato, and sour kraut.

    Research has proven that one can survive on a diet solely consisting of potatoes; with the singular addition of a knob of butter or a glass of milk, as they contain the one or two nutrients not included in the potatoes.
    This was a large study spanning many years, and is often referred to as 'Ireland'.
