things people ask

• How much potato flour do I need to thicken a cup of gravy?
  Start with 1 tablespoon (11.5 g) per cup of liquid for a medium-bodied gravy. Whisk it into cold stock or a splash of cream first to avoid lumps, then stir into the simmering pan. Unlike cornstarch, potato flour won't break if you hold the gravy at a low simmer, which makes it useful for pour-from-the-jug sauces that sit on the table.
• Is potato flour better than cornstarch as a thickener?
  Different, not strictly better. One tablespoon of potato flour roughly matches one tablespoon of cornstarch in thickening power, but the mouthfeel is softer and more matte — closer to a velouté than the glassy finish cornstarch gives. It also tolerates longer cooking and acidic liquids better, so it's the usual pick for tomato-based stews and red wine braises.
• Can I add a tablespoon of potato flour straight to bread dough?
  Yes — 1 to 2 tablespoons (11.5–23 g) folded into a standard loaf's worth of bread flour bumps moisture retention without the commitment of a full potato bread. Add it dry with the wheat flour rather than as a slurry. Expect a slightly softer crumb and a loaf that stays fresh a day longer than the same recipe without it.
