I can't find potato starch in the supermarket [View all]

I've looked on the cooking shelves, the instant mashed potatoes, etc. I'm out of ideas.

I need it to make potato dumplings as a binder.

Here's my question: Can you "make" your own potato starch if you put the instant potatoes in a food processor? Or is it a completely different thing?

Ignorance asking.

Thanks.
