Potato Wine
There will be lots of potatoes in my diet over the next little while. But being from Northern Ireland, I shouldn’t have any problems with that!
I was in an experimental mood today and thought I’d try a recipe for Potato Wine that I found in a book. But first, I needed to find some ingredients I did not have in hand: Citric acid and Amylozyme. Wasn’t sure exactly where I’d find them but on a hunch which turned out to be a good hunch, I called Bob over at Orangeville Winemakers. Sure enough Bob had the Citric Acid. “Amylozyme?” he asked. “What’s that for?” I told him it was an enzyme used to break down starches. “I have Amylase which does that.”
Yes, the same thing, I think. The book that the recipe is in was published in the UK so some terminology might be different. Now that I knew I could get the ingredients today, I planned on making the wine in the evening. Here’s the recipe for potato wine.
