one thing i learned today: potatoes

i thought these smooth, golden-skinned (yukon gold?) potatoes would make a pleasantly silky potato leek soup. instead, they made it kind of gluey. wrong kind of starch? i guess i should have used russets.

Young coconut

this isn't really a food that we made, per se, but it's another that i'm really glad to have discovered. a young coconut is full of particularly delicious coconut water (just hack into the top with a heavy knife), and the flesh is extremely soft and tasty (you can scrape it out with a spoon).
