Interesting detail!

You probably wouldn’t have guessed it, but the famous Amsterdam canals

are said to be a silent killer. In the last 3 years 51 people drowned in the canals.

Still... only just one of them had died as result of a crime.

After research it turned out that the canals are not the culprit, but alcohol is, especially for men.

Drunk men tend to relief themselves not in one of the many urinals, but over the edge of a canal.

Some of them accidentally fall in and drown.

The police says they can recognize the alcohol victims, because they are found with their fly open.

Hmm... let me see!

Prick the sweet ones all over with a fork.

Heat until very tender when pierced for 1 hour.

When cool enough to handle, halve them.

With a spoon, scoop out flesh (discard skins)

and transfer to a food processor.

Add butter and syrup; process until smooth.

Season with salt and pepper. Serve warm!

Now where is the KamaSutra when you need it?

The recipe for sweet mashed potatoes

does look good though, don´t you think?...
