1. Old Crafts - Starch-Making

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

The potatoes were grated with a grater and strained through a strainer with water. The grated potatoes remain on the top of the strainer, and they are thrown away. The starch remains on the bottom of the can. After a few hours the water is drained away, it is a dark brown colour. It is done several times till the water comes clean.

When it is dry it is broken up fine and put into glass posts and covered with paper.
