In the kitchen.

Wash fresh tomatoes. Keep canned juices when called for; a drained can changes both the liquid and the sauce texture.

These foods are listed by NIH ODS as potassium sources. Variety, preparation and portion change the amount; no recipe nutrient totals are calculated here. More is not always appropriate. Kidney disease and some medicines can change potassium handling; follow your care plan. This explorer does not recommend potassium supplements or salt substitutes.
