What to add to potatoes so that they do not boil

0

Boiled potatoes are a hearty and favorite side dish of many, which goes well with any other dishes made from chicken, meat or fish. However, all varieties of this vegetable behave differently in the pot, and at the exit you can get something that remotely resembles mashed potatoes than round and firm potatoes.

Boiled potatoes that have fallen apart are still tasty, but a very unappetizing dish.

And in those cases when exceptionally strong potato tubers are needed, for example, as an ingredient for a salad, such an "opening" under the lid of the pot can spoil the whole dish.

So that there is no confusion when cooking this vegetable, experienced housewives got used to using lemon.

It is enough to add a slice of this sour fruit during the cooking process, and the potatoes will not fall apart even if you forgot to remove them from the stove in time.

At the same time, you should not be afraid that the side dish will acquire a lemon flavor - the taste of potatoes will be the same as without the addition of lemon.

By the way, this fruit can be replaced with a small amount of vinegar or completely put a couple of slices of pickled cucumber into a pot of boiling water.
