How do you remove sweetness of potatoes?

1. Choose less-sweet potato varieties. Varieties such as Yukon Gold, Red Bliss and Kennebec are generally less sweet than russet or sweet potatoes.

2. Cooking. Cooking potatoes breaks down some of the sugars, reducing their sweetness. Boiling potatoes prior to other types of cooking removes sugar.

3. Soak potatoes in cold water after washing them. This helps draw out some of the sugar.

4. Add acidic ingredients to the potatoes when cooking them. Acidic ingredients like vinegar, lemon juice, or yogurt help to balance the sweetness of the potatoes.

5. Serve potatoes with salty or spicy dishes. The salt and spice can help to offset the sweetness of the potatoes.

6. Add aromatic ingredients such as garlic, onion or herbs to enhance their flavor and reduce the noticeable sweetness.
