   Starch is made in this way. First of all three or four nice potatoes are got and peeled and washed very cleanly. Then they are grated into spring water which it must be strained out into another bowl and left to set. The water is removed and more put to it, and that also must be let set. It is generally left there for an hour or so. Then it is fit for use. The fragments generally are put into a paper and after a day the starch looks like flour.
