A tradition way to bake Potatoes in Taiwan

Did you know, how to bake potatoes by using Dirt?



Making dirt clods and make a hollow pyramid by using dirt.



Arrange in a stack by using dirt.



Done, a hollow pyramid made by dirt.




Heat up the dirt by burning some firewood



Heat the dirt up for 40-60 minutes. (Damn long)



Smash down the pyramid and wrapped the potatoes up by the hot dirt for 1hour (huh, another 1hour T_T )



We played some games while we waiting for our potatoes to be done.


Playing with shadow~


And enjoying some junk food :P~


It’s time to dig all the potatoes out carefully from the hot dirt.


What a nice and tasty potato!! It smells good.
