Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but i just found this article and thought I would pass it on. The Andean peoples have an ancient method of preserving potatoes for up to several years: First they lay the potatoes out on the ground over night to freeze them, and then in the morning, they trample the potatoes with their feet and leave them exposed to the intense warmth of the sun. This process (repeated three times) drives the moisture out of the potatoes, enabling them to be kept for longer before going rotten. It is a primitive method of freeze-drying.
