Preparation
Chef’s notes
In most supermarkets, you can find potato starch in the baking aisle alongside other starches and thickeners like cornstarch. It may also be in the gluten-free or international foods aisle, especially within the Kosher or Asian sections. Some stores that have distinct sections for natural or organic foods might also stock potato starch there. If you're having difficulty finding it, ask a store employee.
The sodium content provided in the nutritional section for the potatoes is based on the assumption that about ½ teaspoon of salt is absorbed during boiling in salted water. This is just an estimate, and the actual sodium level can vary.
