It really is amazing. I made a batch in October '08 and forgot about it in the fridge, then broke it out in April '09 and it seemed fine to me. Tasted fine and didn't seem to have separated or anything. Also, I didn't have a problem with crystallization, even after adding the sugar to boiling water.

I don't think it matters if you cut up the potatoes or leave them whole. If you use a small saucepan the two cups of water will cover the potatoes... or at least it does in the small saucepan I use.

Anything that you could compare it to? Also, do you boil the potatoes whole or cut them up. Two cups of water for 6 potatoes doesn't seem like it would be enough. Thanks. I am eager to try this recipe. Exactly how big is a “medium” sized potato? Anything that you could compare it to? Also, do you boil the potatoes whole or cut them up.

Whenever I have made this syrup, I have always used ordinary white potatoes. Betty, I don’t think it matters. Whenever I have made this syrup, I have always used ordinary white potatoes.
