    I’ve been rewatching Good Eats and carrots and beets are also happy in cold dirt.

    He used playground sand be sifted and heated to 140F/60C and letting cool so it’s a bit cleaner.

    Also, adding some turnips or rutabagas to your mashed potatoes adds some nice flavor. They take a bit longer to cook but it’s worth it.

      Good Eats is so awesome. These are some great suggestions. Now I need some root veggies - I just wish I had the time to do all the cool nerdy shit Alton does. I want to heat sand and store things in it, but damned if I’ve got the time for that.
