  • **POTATO LATKES RECIPE: smittenkitchen...
    Hanukah starts soon but do know that at the Smitten Kitchen, latkes are never limited to a single season. Crispy, salty potato pancakes are, we think, the best place to rest a fried egg, or even cook extra tiny and finish with a dollop of crème fraîche and caviar or smoked salmon for a little holiday indulgence. You deserve it.

    Here's a method I've been using for years. I squeeze the potatoes and onion in cheesecloth over a bowl. The liquid will separate with potato starch at the bottom. I pour off the liquid and use the starch to mix with the potatoes.

      That's a good method, I've done that too.

    you nailed it again, deb. how is it that i've been shredding my potatoes for latkes in the vertical tube for FORTY plus years? then you show me sideways and the longer strands are fabulous! and it took a fraction of the time. also love your littler spaghetti piles. what a hit! thanks, as always. your videos are a delight AND an education.

    I make Deb's latkes every year. The ratio version makes it so easy. Protip: mix well the egg/potato starch / salt in the bowl first and then add the shredded potato / onion. Makes a much more uniform covering. You're welcome. And thanks, Deb.

    I don't have as much time to watch TH-cam as I used to (oh my gosh, hours on end!), but I'm glad I had a chance to take a glimpse :) happy hannukah!

    Loved these! I especially liked the tip about doing long strands and forming little swirly nests instead of the more traditional hash brown style shreds. Found them much easier to place in the pan without losing little bits that burn and ruin the oil unless you’re constantly fishing them out, a problem I usually encounter with latkes. Plus, less wasted potato and (based on the many fervent replies I got) more Instagrammable!

    These are the absolute best. It's, More about technique than ingredients, I think and Deb is so clear with her demonstration. Thank you!

    I use the starch left from squeezing the potatoes. Also, I use matzo meal as a binder..

    I didn't know you had a youtube channel! When I'm looking for a recipe, the first place I search is Smitten Kitchen, then google in the rare event you don't have the perfect recipe for whatever the dish. Love your recipes!!

    Going to make these as apps for thanksgiving. I love the small, ropey ones you do! They remind me of the mini Dunkin Donuts hash browns that I used to get as a kid but obviously majorly upgraded. Thanks!

    My mom always made potato pancakes but she shredded her potatoes much finer and they were good but soggier and less crispy than I wanted. I’m gonna try it like this next time but don’t tell mom! Also, my mom usually added a bunch of chopped parsley, I don’t know if it really added any flavor but I like the green speckles🙂

    Ohhh, this is too much... my mouth is watering and my mind is going back to great-grandma who used to make the best latkes....I remember grating the potatoes and checking my knuckles to make sure my skin was still intact....

    This solved a mystery for me - in your recipe you say lie the potato side ways and I was always like 'how?' - I don't think I've seen a food processor in Australia with a massive chute and I wish they did!

    You've convinced me to actually try peanut oil instead of vegetable oil for my latkes because you're right, they sometimes come out too heavy for me!

    • @marciabramson6194

    • @smittenkitchening
      @smittenkitchening  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Dispose of it safely! (Different rules for how to do this in different places.) There are times when I reuse oil but there isn't a lot here and it's pretty fragrant so I don't save it, unless, perhaps, I'm planning to make latkes again in the same week.

    You literally blew my mind when you ran the food processor without the tube part and could put the whole potato in! As another person commented, I've been chopping my veggies for the shoot forever. But.. my food processor won't run if I don't have the tube on. Am I missing something or is it a limitation of my Cusinart, does anyone know?

    • @smittenkitchening
      @smittenkitchening  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's just the model I have with a removable tube. (P.S. I hate it; it's much more awkward to use than the other models.)

  • @tanaw130

    I have an allium allergy, so I can't use onions in our latkes. I usually just use potatoes, but have wondered about adding grated zucchini to the mixture for moisture. Your thoughts?
    Happy Thanksgiving - Happy Chanukah!!

    • @callitags
      @callitags 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I make them with a potato zucchini mix often, and have done for years. I do shred, salt, and squeeze some water out of the zucchini first. We really like them.

    • @katyweaver7689

      I wonder if you could use some carrot to get that sort of sweetness you get from onion?

    • @mimitannen1474
      @mimitannen1474 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@katyweaver7689 Try some sweet potatoes in place of some of the potato- that is our favorite. Can add parsnips too.

    I never ever use just one grind. I use several. Honey, potato pancakes and latkes are two different recipes ... Hmmm ... Those are like tater tots ... But thanks for your take on Latkes.
