You’ll learn:

How potato poultices work
When to use a hot preparation and when to use a cold one
How to grate, prepare, and apply them properly
Simple ways to adapt them using common kitchen and garden ingredients
How to secure and layer a poultice so it’s comfortable and effective

You'll make and apply poultices together so you leave feeling confident to recreate them in your own kitchen.
