It is a staple of the British diet and the potato is being celebrated in Bradford ahead of National Potato Day.
Pre-school children enjoyed a workshop at Allerton Children’s Centre, Avenel Road, where they got to grips with the vegetable.
They had a go at making and tasting potato recipes from mash and jackets brimming with various fillings to home-made crisps. There was also time for some potato printing.
The Henry Doubleday Research Association, a leading organic charity, holds National Potato Day on Wednesday, February 3.
Pictured enjoying the day are, from the back, Edward Ogunkoya, five, Enya Cooke, four, and Mason Hall, five
