Q: Clean and peel the potatoes first, then cut them into cubes. You need enough potatoes to fill 1⅔ (375 grams). Place the potatoes into a pot and cover them with 1 to 2 inches (2.54 to 5.08 centimeters) of cold water. Add some salt, if desired, then bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Once the water starts to boil, reduce it to a simmer. Let the potatoes cook, uncovered, until they are tender. Check the potatoes every 5 minutes. They should be done in 10 to 20 minutes. Once the potatoes are cooked through, take them off the stove. Place a colander in the sink, then pour the potatoes into it. Shake the colander gently to remove any excess water, then place the potatoes back into the pot. You can do this with a potato masher or with a fork. Keep mashing the potatoes until they are smooth. And lumps or clumps will end up clogging your piping bag. For extra flavor, add in some Parmesan cheese. Mix everything together with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until evenly combined. Place a piping bag into a cup and fold down the top over the edge of the glass. Use a wooden spoon or rubber spatula to scoop the mashed potato mixture into the bag. Tie off the top and snip off the bottom of the bag.  If you want to, you can fit the piping bag with a large, round tip. No piping bag? No problem. Fill a plastic bag with the potato mixture, tie off the end, then snip off the bottom corner. Fill a large skillet about 1inch (2.54 centimeters) deep with oil. Turn on the stove to medium-high heat. Allow the oil to heat up to to 375°F (191°C). Move the piping bag from center-out to create a tight spiral shape. Try to keep the spiral as flat as you can. The spiral will unravel slightly as they cook to form a looser spiral. You should be able to fit at least three spirals in your skillet. This should take about 2½ to 3 minutes. Once they turn golden, flip them over with a spatula, and cook them for a few more seconds. Use a spatula to transfer the spirals from the skillet to a paper towel. As they drain, you can make more spirals. You can serve them as they are, or you can garnish them further with salt and/or dried herbs. Eat them on their own, or serve them alongside your favorite fry dip, such as ketchup or mustard.
A: Prepare the potatoes. Cook the potatoes until they turn soft. Drain the potatoes. Mash the potatoes. Add the egg, potato starch, milk, salt, and pepper. Transfer the mashed potatoes into a piping bag. Heat your cooking oil. Squeeze the mashed potato mixture into the oil. Cook the spirals until they turn a golden brown color. Drain the potato spirals. Serve the spirals.

Q: Set up the letter as a standard business letter. However, also include a heading, such as the words “Final Demand.” Put the words in bold and underline them. You want the recipient to know that this is their last chance to pay up before you take additional action. You should tell the customer that they are now in breach of your agreement and that you have added interest or a penalty for being late. Then tell them the new total amount they need to pay. Sample language could read: “Despite previous reminders, your account remains delinquent. Because you are now in breach of our payment terms, we are adding a $50 late payment penalty per our ‘Late Payment of Debts Terms of Agreement.’ The total outstanding debt is now $225.00.” You should tell the customer how much time they have to make final payment. You should not give them too much time. For example, you could set a 72-hour deadline. Explain what will happen if the customer doesn’t meet the deadline. For example, you might pass the account onto collections or sue the customer in court.  Sample language could read: “It is now crucial that you pay your outstanding bill in full within the next seventy-two hours. If you don’t, then we will have little choice but to pass this account to our debt collection agency, who will add more charges to the account.”  You can bold the “seventy-two hours” to make those words stand out. Emphasize that the client should take this final demand letter seriously and pay up. For example, you could write, “We therefore suggest that you take this matter seriously and pay your balance in full as soon as possible.” You should send this one through the post, using certified mail, return receipt requested. If you don’t hear back from the customer, then go ahead and send the account to collections or sue—whichever you threatened in the letter.
A:
Identify the letter as your final demand. Explain late fees. Give a deadline. Conclude your letter. Mail the letter.
