INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Place a medium-sized pot of water on the stove. Sprinkle in a pinch of salt, then turn the heat up to medium-high and bring the water to a boil. When the water reaches a boil, drop in the potato. Keep the potato in the hot water for around fifteen minutes. After fifteen minutes, use a large serving spoon to remove the potato from the water. Poke the potato with a fork. If the potato is soft and easy to pierce it, the potato is done cooking. If it is still hard, put the potato back into the water and cook more until it is easy to pierce. After you take the potato out of the hot water, pat it dry, then wait for it to cool slightly, about five to ten minutes. Then cut the potato in half and use a spoon to scoop out the cooked, white inside of the potato. Place the potato pieces that you scooped out into a large, sturdy bowl. Use a potato masher to pound the potatoes and mash them down to a paste as smooth as you can. You can also use an electric mixer to mash the potato.

SUMMARY: Boil a pot of water and add the potato. Cook the potato for fifteen minutes. Scoop out the inside of the potato. Mash the potato.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Depending on the size of your toaster oven, you may need to use a smaller amount of sliced almonds. Make sure the nuts are spread evenly with minimal overlap, to ensure that they toast evenly. Consider lining your tray in foil for easier cleanup. However, make sure to check the instructions for your specific toaster model first, to confirm that it’s equipped to handle aluminum foil. The process for toasting almonds in a toaster oven is very similar to toasting in a regular oven. The major difference is that the heating elements are much closer to the almonds in a toaster oven, meaning that they can burn more easily. Keep a close eye on the almonds throughout the entire process to make sure they don’t burn!

SUMMARY: Spread up to 1 cup (240 mL) of almonds on your toaster oven tray. Set the toaster oven to 350 °F (177 °C) and place the tray inside.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Before you can start washing the window screen, you'll need to remove it from the window.  Removing the screen will allow you to completely and easily wash it.  Make sure any screen you plan on washing has been removed from the window before you being cleaning it.  The exact method you use to remove the screen will depend on the type of window screen you have. Many window screens will have small tabs that are pulled out, releasing the screen from the window frame. Make sure you carefully remove the screen as many window screens can be ripped or torn easily. Once you've removed the screen from the window frame, it's time to take it to a good workspace.  You'll want to find an area that you will be able to safely spray water in.  You'll also want to make sure you have a hose that can reach the area you plan on working in.  Once you find a good area to work in, it's time to take the screens there and get ready to clean them.  You'll want to make sure you've got plenty of room to work in. The area you choose should allow you to spray and drain water easily. You can try laying down a tarp to protect the screen from sharp sticks or stones. A good screen cleaning will require you to have a bucket of household ammonia and water ready.  Cleaning the screen with this mixture will allow you to break up and remove dirt, dust or any other substance that has come in contact with the screen.  Mixing up some ammonia and water will be the last thing you need to do before you start washing the window screen.  Mix one part ammonia with three parts water. If you don't have ammonia handy, you can also use warm water mixed with mild soap. Make sure you wear rubber gloves when mixing or cleaning with this mixture. Once you've mixed the ammonia and water together, stir the mixture to evenly distribute both parts. You could also use mild dish detergent if you don't have ammonia handy.

SUMMARY:
Remove the screen from the window. Find a good workspace to clean the screen in. Prepare the cleaning solution.
