Question for all you bakers

I usually shop at Tesco's;it's good for the basics, but not for any unusual or nonmainstream foods. For items like low-GI baking ingredients and non-wheat or gluten-free flours I order from Goodness Direct. I think they have the potato starch/flour you're looking for. I buy cracked flaxseed from them, and I've never had a problem with it going rancid - I always refridgerate it.
 
Hi Kasey, there's a difference between potato flour/starch and potato fibre/pofiber. The starch is very high in carbs and is widely available, the potato fibre seems available only to the lucky Scandinavians.

Chestnut flour, referred to a few posts above is also high in carbs.
 
I didn't look specifically through the Goodness Direct site to see if they have it, but prompted by your comment, Etty, I gave it a shot. They have some products made with potato fibre / pofibre as an ingredient, but they don't carry pofibre "plain," to use for cooking, at least not that I can see. On the positive side though, apparently a British company (not sure which one) has copyrighted a form of the name to use, so perhaps they're getting ready to market some--?
