I love how a lot of you tubers are all down for super healthy recipes and Emmy just says things like “I love toast” and “ you can’t go wrong with fried potatoes” it’s refreshing
Yum I know! I adore their deluxe fried chicken sandwich with them. That thing is the bomb. My grandkids say they cook it in butter. Fine by me I love butter. Real butter. And mayo and lots of tomatoes and lettuce! The fish was always my fave but Idk now. That chicken is so good.😉🥔🍗🥪🍟🍅
"Rinse them with water to remove the extra starch." "Now, put them in a bowl and stir in some extra starch." I'm sure there's some kind of reason for this, some difference between potato and corn starches, but I found it slightly perplexing, as well as humorous.
Cornstarch and potato starch have very different properties. The starches inside the potatoes don't help crisp. They convert to sugar and promote browning. If you leave the starch on them, they will turn very dark brown before they crisp up. They also have a tendency to turn an unappetizing grey color on all the cut edges, which would be hugely noticeable inside something like hash browns with all the little potato bits having hundreds of cut edges. Also, not rinsing the potato starch off can leave you with a gummy interior, whereas cornstarch absorbs some of the moisture and holds them together without causing the gummy texture 😉
Okay but I never knew there was an "eye removing tool" on potato peelers before. 😅 My bf ordered cheesy tots last weekend thought it meant the cheese was stuffed inside the tots when it was just layered on top, I strongly believe that this video was on my feed for a reason lol. Thank you, Emmy!
Havarti and also some flavour cheese, like a sharp cheddar, Havarti is an amazing addition to any cheese I go to a pub locally and my burger always is Havarti and chedar and it is just unreasonably good I happily eat it even though I react so poorly to cheese that it has sent me to the hospital multiple times

Just when I thought Emmy couldn’t get any more wholesome, she talks about composting and how she’s chill with the lil animals getting their meal out of it 🥺❤️ She’s too damn precious
I'm a truck driver and i pick up loads from the Or-Ida plant on the Oregon/ Idaho border pretty often. The whole dang town smells like French fries sometimes lol
I love the smell of fries. I'll be at Wal-Mart and I can smell Wendy's fries in the air. Wendy's is about 200 feet from Wal-Mart, depending on where you park. It smells soooo good. 😋
A couple of tips for these - If you're using a skillet rather than a deep fryer, just make sure you have enough oil for the patties to float a bit. If they rest on the pan, they scorch very quickly. These also freeze very well if you wrap each one in plastic wrap to keep them from forming crystals, then store them in whatever container is practical for your freezer. Just don't fry them and then freeze; you only get mush lol. Form, freeze, then fry.
Professionals: Just buy frozen french fries, too hard to attempt I'm starting to think professionals aren't professionals especially on food that originally weren't fast food and was made at home
Chances are the in restaurant versions are more complicated then this. I wudnt be shocked if mcdonalds is using a very specific kind of potato with the exact starch ratio they need and sourcing that potato is likely hard except for when one is mcdonalds. That and they most definitely add more seasonings than just salt to their potatoes. Likely the person is only used to cooking it on a huge grill surface in large batches and just thinks it wud take way too long to make that. I imagine this specific task is a daily task that takes a worker or two about an hrs worth of work to prep for hash browns needed for just their far too short brkfast window. So to many folks that wud just seem like way too much complication considering the oreida ones will taste almost as good, and as good if ya top them with msg and cheese
I cannot wait to make these I'm probably gonna fry these just right before they're brown so I can make a lot of them to freeze n just fry them golden in the morning for bfast
Pretty sure that's how McDonald's does it. Just like with the fries, they partially cook them in the factory and put them in the deep freeze and then send them to the restaurants and then at the restaurant they just throw it in the fryer for like 2 minutes and then it's done to perfect golden perfection
If ya want to simulate the beef tallow you can infuse your cooking oil with some beef bouillon and if ya want more potato flavour or just dont have corn starch for whatevs reason... You can use the reserved starch from the potato water (it will settle to the bottom in a short while, faster if in the fridge; shud be done by finishin cookin and shaping tatoes honestly). It also just feels cool to make the recipe with even less ingredients that way heh. Just potatoes and oil is all you need rly.
Ain’t I’m a lucky swede, I just woke up, and grabbed my phone to look what time it is, 2:05 in the middle of the night. But how can I go back to sleep when I know that Emmy is going to make homemade hash browns for us? No it would not work out, so now I’m all snuggled up in bed with my two puppies and will enjoying this episode ❤️ there is always a meaning why things happens, and this was just that! A little meaningful thing that’s makes me so happy, and I’m not tired at all 😍🌹
We dont have a compost bin, instead we have guinea pigs! They eat the veggie and fruit scraps, and their droppings make excellent fertilizer for the lawn and flowers.
@@chloeparker4488 America is suffering right there with you! A lot of restaurants have cancelled all day breakfast due to Covid. Who knows how soon it will be back for us, though!
literally. when i did these, it looked like a bomb went off in my kitchen. small bits of potato, grease, paper towels, EVERYWHERE. they're also sickeningly greasy, but i think that's on me for cooking them too low lol
If the frying is a major issue for yall, and i get that and wudnt judge for it, then there's always air fryers and they can cook these up just as tasty... I wud just then recommend A: adding some more oil (or even butter) for the initial cooking and shaping, this is just for flavour rly as the air fryer wont have the oil infused flavour otherwise. 2: Going the cheese stuffd route or even adding other stuffing ideas (like jalapeños as another person suggestd) and more seasonings than just salt. This will make a different kind of hash brown but i betcha it tastes as good. Its rly prty much baking them, but it does it at more frying pan heat levels than your oven will ever hit. Tho you cud also stick the hash browns under your oven's grill (what American's wud call a broiler) and watch them closely and flip when they get colour. This will give you more of a roasted hash brown flavour but can cook up rly fast like a frying pan wud and avoids the scaryness of working with hot dripping oil 🔥 Or just bake them and get subpar hash browns.
@@dAfoodie101 Im just suggestin alternatives so one need not fry at all if they dont wanna. And it lets you have it much more often too. It's just potatoes and salt rly; so its not like its anything you shudnt be eating that often. A potato a day keeps the doctor away as they say.
Also a grt idea... Get a mcdouble and a mchicken and put the mchicken in the mcdouble. It's like $3 and far tastier than a big mac. Probs even better with a hash brown or two. (in as in between the two burger patties if ya can pull them apart)
Emmy that looks amazing! 😋🥔🧀 Thank you for always finding and trying so many different cool recipes, I am always so inspired by your videos! Plus you’re the best to watch 😁
This looks great! I'm definitely going to try to make these with my son. He loves the hash browns at McDonald's, so I know he would love the cheese version. My go-to McDonald's breakfast used to be a sausage McMuffin (no egg), with a hash brown inside, and a smear of either grape jam or ketchup. Very unhealthy, but very delicious. lol

I literally, audibly gasped when I got the alert for this and I saved it because I was driving! So as soon as I got my butt settled I turned it on but I had to comment first because I’m just so stinking excited! I have never wanted one of your experiments to go so well before! I don’t know why I’m so jazzed about this I don’t even really eat them but 2-3 times a year?!? However if I could make them at home I think they would be a major hit! You are so fun, you are the best and you are pure sunshine during some very dark days! Thank you thank you thank you I know you have a lot of fun doing what you do but it’s more than just recipes any you really do bring a lot of good cheer in the people’s lives 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Oh the tease of watching these videos at midnight! You're so lovely. Sometimes I wonder if you're starving when you try these delicious creations - your reactions are always so priceless! I cant be the only one wanting some ^_^
We can't wait to compost! Our offer was just excepted for our homestead! ❤️ I read that raw potato and potato skins can make your chickens sick. I don't personally know but I have been reading chicken raising books because we plan to start with that. I know you have chickens so just saying I'm case your chickens eat from the compost pile. 😉
I've had chickens for around 30 years, and I've definitely tossed compost containing raw potato peelings into places they like to scratch into for food. They don't eat the potato peels , and they ignore onion peels, onion root end chunks, and so on. Do be mindful not to give them something with chocolate in it. They will eat it and they shouldn't.
@@rebekahyoder9335 Yes my experience with chickens is that they just won't eat things that are bad for them. Chocolate though, well I've never put any so they could get to it.
Hii mommaa! I wonder if you've heard about the no knead bread on tiktok! I think it's an interesting idea for you next video. Its really easy, and may inspired people who are afraid to try to make their own bread! 💕 love from Malaysia
I love that you let the animals have a bite from the compost. They are just trying to survive and they are very cute. I feed possums at my house in Australia. I dont use any pesticides or poisons in my garden.
Those look absolutely delicious. I'm gonna have to make them; thanks for the video! Ever since I was a kid, I've been a sucker for Mickey D's hashbrowns.
They just have to evaluate the potential for mouth burns if the cheese gets too hot. But if they get the recipe and cooking process nailed down, it shouldn't be a problem.
@@deeanndroid8523 McDonald's has already had Mozzarella sticks. Not sure how different this would be, they were always just warm when I got them. Wish they were hot
I think the thing i love most about your videos is the honestly. I feel like i could make these foods you make and have it taste exactly like you say it is. Obviously there may be differing opinions but your not gonna say that a recipe is DELISH, when it tastes bad, just for views. Great detail, explanation, recipes, very helpful. Best channel on youtube!!
Compost love. I'm happy to say I had familiarity with compost growing up. The very simple version back then for backyard plots of veggies and fruits. Now Composting doesn't smell nearly as much, which combined with the resurgence in interest in sustainability, has made it accessible, popular, and to some degree in vogue. Can't wait for my town to eventually get an industrial composter, but there's something so nostalgic to me about the stinky bucket of food scraps.
@@No-xh2cs I am not talking about them sponsoring her video, I am talking about how they currently have the BTS meal, which is just a 10 nugget meal with new sauces, but instead have chefs like Emmy create a meal for McDonald's.
I have been admitted to the ER multiple times from consuming dairy but I'm right there with you (When I forget my lactase pills but already am half way through whatever cheese/dairy dish.... I've actually needed surgery before)
@@ConstantChaos1 hey I didnt see anything but I hope you're okay my dude😂. I meant nothing bad by my comment. Just wanted to say I like your username haha.
Fellow composter here! I vermicompost (doesn’t smell) and cold compost (leaves, grass, old plants from the garden that aren’t diseased) and it doesn’t smell or attract any animals. It shouldn’t, unless you’re putting tons of food in your compost, or dairy/meat. Also, Emmy laughing with pure joy when she bit into the cheese hash brown while her mouth was full made me giggle with glee. Love this channel.
3 food/cooking channels I binge watch: 1. Emmymade 2. Nino's Home 3. Delicious day Super love love love every video! 🥰 Hello from the Philippines, Emmy!
Hash browns and breakfast potatoes are my absolute favorite breakfast food. My mom was 1 of 6 kids and they didn’t have much growing up. So my grandmother regularly made hash browns and fried potatoes and onions. When we were kids my cousins and I loved when she would make them! Fried potatoes and onions is amazing. Sometimes we would eat them in a sandwich with butter (so many carbs lol) but it’s amazing. Lol
As a A Born and Raised Minnesotan (CA Transplant) who used to eat deep fried cheese curds at the MN state fair........🤚🏼Hi WI. My name is.... I’m a cheese addict...I can’t even eat a sandwich without cheese on it (No American cheese either!) It’s been a few hours since the last time I had something cheese flavored or covered in cheese 🤭 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 No Seriously 😳 We’re from Dairy Country Ppl! 🤣 She’s adorable though, did u see how she looked at the cheese?

An Emmy video is always a happy time. A big smile. Just like a cozy chat with a good friend in front of a fire on a cold day with a good cuppa. Emmy evokes all those images. Sweet wholesome and intelligent. An Emmy time is always welcome
I love you Emmy!!!! Some day I’d like to see you make or try either hamburger helper sushi or lunchables waffles!!!! They are very unique and think you would get a kick out of them!!! I’ve made videos of them both myself 😄😋😄😋😄
Made these... so good!!!... I also added two teaspoons of garlic powder. There's onion powder in the store-bought ones, but I don't know about McDonald's, but I don't care not going to buy them ever again. Going to make them
Thank you for the video. It is nice to see a successful recipe for hash browns. I know for a fact that McDonald's from the Pacific NW bought their potato products from a Pendleton OR potato factory in the 70s to 90s. String fries, hash browns, etc. My Aunt worked there for decades and often brought home food from various restaurants including McDonald's.
I have a work around for the double frying if anyone is interested. Put 3 large potatoes into your insta-pot, un-peeled and set for 3 min. When the pressure releases remove from the pot and let them cool to room temp. (Very important that they cool so they get creamy and sticky). When cool peel and toss in your food processor using the grater wheel not the blades. Now, pick up where Emmy was adding the salt and corn flour. Don't rinse them and use 1 Tablespoon corn starch to 3 med. potatoes. This technique saves me from standing over a stove twice. The insta-pot does the same thing but I don't have to watch it. Also the potato skins just pull off with your fingers after pressure cooking.
You can use your vegetable scraps to make stock before you compost them! I keep mine in a gallon bag in the freezer until it's full (usually just under a week), then boil in a large pot until they're pretty mushy. Strain them out, then compost. To avoid getting too much stock, boil it after the straining and make a stick concentrate. You can even keep the stock in the freezer and keep making it stronger and stronger.
I just made these and I added sauteed onion to my mixture. I also used my biscuit cutter cause I didn't feel like messing with making them square. They were so yummy.
Great video! I used to make potato pancakes the same way except I just grated the raw potatoes into a bowl and added 1 egg and some flour to thicken up the grated potatoes and a little bit of seasoning salt. I didn't cook the potato twice like you did either. I just used a tablespoon and placed a tablespoon of grated potatoes into a hot cast iron pan and cooked the potato pancakes till they were a golden brown color. Less waste I guess and faster except the uncooked grated potatoes will turn brown quicker due to being exposed to the surrounding air.
Dear Emmy. You are already a genius, but if anyone else is reading this, my top for perfectly rolled out hash brown patties, cookies, or burger patties, is to set a DVD or a CD case beside the roller ensuring that the thickness is regulated to the width of a CD or DVD, since most people have those around the house, they make great rolling guides for total perfection. :)
If food was a love language, Cheese stuffed hashbrowns (for me) would be the equivalence a marriage proposal.
Years ago Burger King had cheese stuffed tater tots...
They were sheer perfection.

Understatement of the year: "I like these slight more than the McDonald's version"
Additional stuffing thoughts: diced bacon, small amounts of diced jalapeno.
I like that idea, it’d almost be good to have the bacon jalapeño incorporated into the patty then make a super rich queso dip for it.
A well minced combo of bacon onion and your pepper of choice.

It is astounding how amazing Emmy is at everything. Your videos give me peace like no other and I love you so very much!
I literally, audibly gasped when I got the alert for this and I saved it because I was driving! So as soon as I got my butt settled I turned it on but I had to comment first because I’m just so stinking excited! I have never wanted one of your experiments to go so well before! I don’t know why I’m so jazzed about this I don’t even really eat them but 2-3 times a year?!? However if I could make them at home I think they would be a major hit! You are so fun, you are the best and you are pure sunshine during some very dark days!
Thank you thank you thank you I know you have a lot of fun doing what you do but it’s more than just recipes any you really do bring a lot of good cheer in the people’s lives 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
And thank you for the kind words. 🧡
@@emmymade always!! Thank you for being you and sharing so much!
Also, you sound congested :(
Oh the tease of watching these videos at midnight! You're so lovely. Sometimes I wonder if you're starving when you try these delicious creations - your reactions are always so priceless! I cant be the only one wanting some ^_^
Hello 👋 how are you doing
We can't wait to compost! Our offer was just excepted for our homestead! ❤️ I read that raw potato and potato skins can make your chickens sick. I don't personally know but I have been reading chicken raising books because we plan to start with that. I know you have chickens so just saying I'm case your chickens eat from the compost pile. 😉
I've had chickens for around 30 years, and I've definitely tossed compost containing raw potato peelings into places they like to scratch into for food. They don't eat the potato peels , and they ignore onion peels, onion root end chunks, and so on. Do be mindful not to give them something with chocolate in it. They will eat it and they shouldn't.
@@rebekahyoder9335 Yes my experience with chickens is that they just won't eat things that are bad for them. Chocolate though, well I've never put any so they could get to it.
Hii mommaa! I wonder if you've heard about the no knead bread on tiktok! I think it's an interesting idea for you next video. Its really easy, and may inspired people who are afraid to try to make their own bread! 💕 love from Malaysia
i love airfrying the trader joes hashbrown patties that are shaped just like this and they are amazing, just like mcdonalds
Same! So good
I love that you let the animals have a bite from the compost. They are just trying to survive and they are very cute. I feed possums at my house in Australia. I dont use any pesticides or poisons in my garden.
Those look absolutely delicious. I'm gonna have to make them; thanks for the video! Ever since I was a kid, I've been a sucker for Mickey D's hashbrowns.
I'm sure the McD's execs will be "liberating" this cheesy idea soon... :P
They just have to evaluate the potential for mouth burns if the cheese gets too hot. But if they get the recipe and cooking process nailed down, it shouldn't be a problem.
@@deeanndroid8523 McDonald's has already had Mozzarella sticks. Not sure how different this would be, they were always just warm when I got them. Wish they were hot
The kindest and the most soothing voice I have ever heard.
I think the thing i love most about your videos is the honestly. I feel like i could make these foods you make and have it taste exactly like you say it is. Obviously there may be differing opinions but your not gonna say that a recipe is DELISH, when it tastes bad, just for views. Great detail, explanation, recipes, very helpful. Best channel on youtube!!
My favorite... Sausage biscuit with a hash browns on it!
Hello 👋 how are you doing
You can use a peeler to take little chunks out? I really feel like I fail as an adult rn
Same I had to go grab my potato peeler just to see if I had that little nubbin thing my mind was blown😵
😆
Omg I love Korean pancakes and these are basically so similar great recipes can’t wait to try !!!!!!!!!
Compost love. I'm happy to say I had familiarity with compost growing up. The very simple version back then for backyard plots of veggies and fruits. Now Composting doesn't smell nearly as much, which combined with the resurgence in interest in sustainability, has made it accessible, popular, and to some degree in vogue. Can't wait for my town to eventually get an industrial composter, but there's something so nostalgic to me about the stinky bucket of food scraps.
This is the greatest video ever. I personally feel that McDonald's should collaborate with you and other celebrity chefs.
She had the chicken sandwich one sponsored by McDonald's
@@No-xh2cs I am not talking about them sponsoring her video, I am talking about how they currently have the BTS meal, which is just a 10 nugget meal with new sauces, but instead have chefs like Emmy create a meal for McDonald's.
Its like looking into the center of the sun.. my colon knows I shouldn't, but I desire it so
I have been admitted to the ER multiple times from consuming dairy but I'm right there with you
(When I forget my lactase pills but already am half way through whatever cheese/dairy dish.... I've actually needed surgery before)
@@ConstantChaos1 haha your username serves your story right my guy😂😂😂
@@jadamcleod2895 sorry for lashing out earlier I was blackout drunk
@@ConstantChaos1 hey I didnt see anything but I hope you're okay my dude😂. I meant nothing bad by my comment. Just wanted to say I like your username haha.
@@jadamcleod2895 yeah I tend to loose my cool when I'm gone, just figured I'd say sorry idek how I took that offensively its perfectly reasonable
I love that you linked the original in the description, I was also blessed by the algorithm with that video a few weeks ago
Fellow composter here! I vermicompost (doesn’t smell) and cold compost (leaves, grass, old plants from the garden that aren’t diseased) and it doesn’t smell or attract any animals. It shouldn’t, unless you’re putting tons of food in your compost, or dairy/meat.
Also, Emmy laughing with pure joy when she bit into the cheese hash brown while her mouth was full made me giggle with glee. Love this channel.
Hello 👋 how are you doing
You had me at "Cheese stuffed" 😮😮😮😮
🧀🧀🧀
Love composting! Everyone should give it a try.
Watching you overflow with genuine excitement makes everything entertaining
3 food/cooking channels I binge watch:
1. Emmymade
2. Nino's Home
3. Delicious day
Super love love love every video! 🥰
Hello from the Philippines, Emmy!
I watch nino’s home too lol
You should add Beryl
Oh my goodness! You've peaked, Emmy, you've peaked! 😂
Anyone here also watch Josh Weissman? Emmy just did a But Better segment. I love it. Hopefully Papa loves it too. 😊
Papa kiss
I watch Weeds & Sardines channel. Better than Weissman.
Ha thanks for the referral. I just checked out Bri's Italian Beef vid 😋 liked, subscribed, and added to the list 😊
@@mattotis8412 He's relatively new to YT, but his stuff is quality. Glad you enjoyed it!
Hash browns and breakfast potatoes are my absolute favorite breakfast food. My mom was 1 of 6 kids and they didn’t have much growing up. So my grandmother regularly made hash browns and fried potatoes and onions. When we were kids my cousins and I loved when she would make them! Fried potatoes and onions is amazing. Sometimes we would eat them in a sandwich with butter (so many carbs lol) but it’s amazing. Lol
I just tried making hashbrowns couple of days ago and finally found a real recipe inside of me winging it. Thx Emmy!
Not liking cheese on everything?! As a Wisconsinite, I am highly offended! Cheese goes great on most everything! 😋
As a A Born and Raised Minnesotan (CA Transplant) who used to eat deep fried cheese curds at the MN state fair........🤚🏼Hi WI.
My name is....
I’m a cheese addict...I can’t even eat a sandwich without cheese on it (No American cheese either!)
It’s been a few hours since the last time I had something cheese flavored or covered in cheese 🤭
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
No Seriously 😳
We’re from Dairy Country Ppl! 🤣
She’s adorable though, did u see how she looked at the cheese? That’s appreciation!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hello 👋 how are you doing
yum!
Hello 👋 how are you doing
I love composting too!! It's so nice to put food scraps to good use
Hello 👋 how are you doing today
compost is the best. I love watching the local little birds picking it over for bugs 💖💕
Ok thats just freaky...i JUST sat down with some hash browns and this pops up!
the cheese stuffed hashbrown looks so yummy!!
Hello 👋 how are you doing
I haven't tried many of your videos because I don't do web sites and technical stuff like that! But I really like you and your fun and spunky way of putting your show together...
An Emmy video is always a happy time. A big smile. Just like a cozy chat with a good friend in front of a fire on a cold day with a good cuppa.
Emmy evokes all those images.
Sweet wholesome and intelligent.
An Emmy time is always welcome
Thank you. 😊
Hello 👋 how are you doing
They need some MSG in em. They look great.
Ha! Maybe you watch Uncle Roger. Lol
cheese stuffed hashbrows will be the next big thing.
3:05 They also use a combination of different frying oils to get their distinct flavor.
Yes! I love watching the chipmunks and squirrels munch on my composting bits. They especially like the watermelon rinds this time of year 😁
Hello 👋 how are you doing
I have huge compost piles and use them to heat my greenhouse.
Huh. I wonder if that would work for the chicken coop too?
@@s.a.w5493 Should work for a chicken coop. I have plastic tubes run through compost and circulate antifreeze with a small pump
Can you try making Puff Puff ??! It’s a traditional Nigerian desert! Just like a donut but better~
That'll be awesomeee
Compost Love! 🙌🏼
& appreciation for this delicious looking recipe!
Hello 👋 how are you doing
How can you not get excited when Emmy gets excited?😀
I love you Emmy!!!! Some day I’d like to see you make or try either hamburger helper sushi or lunchables waffles!!!! They are very unique and think you would get a kick out of them!!! I’ve made videos of them both myself 😄😋😄😋😄
Krogers makes a frozen hashbrown that looks just like McDonald's
Made these... so good!!!... I also added two teaspoons of garlic powder. There's onion powder in the store-bought ones, but I don't know about McDonald's, but I don't care not going to buy them ever again. Going to make them
Thank you for the video.
It is nice to see a successful recipe for hash browns.
I know for a fact that McDonald's from the Pacific NW bought their potato products from a Pendleton OR potato factory in the 70s to 90s.
String fries, hash browns, etc.
My Aunt worked there for decades and often brought home food from various restaurants including McDonald's.
I wonder if these would be any good if they're cooked in an air fryer.
Wondering the same thing
try it out! at worst you've got a flat baked potato
@@sarabeth641 😂😂😂
Omg amazing looks so good plus its always good to see when you get so excited and happy when it works thumbs up emmy
Hello 👋 how are you doing today
I have a work around for the double frying if anyone is interested. Put 3 large potatoes into your insta-pot, un-peeled and set for 3 min. When the pressure releases remove from the pot and let them cool to room temp. (Very important that they cool so they get creamy and sticky). When cool peel and toss in your food processor using the grater wheel not the blades. Now, pick up where Emmy was adding the salt and corn flour. Don't rinse them and use 1 Tablespoon corn starch to 3 med. potatoes. This technique saves me from standing over a stove twice. The insta-pot does the same thing but I don't have to watch it. Also the potato skins just pull off with your fingers after pressure cooking.
I AM SOOOOO GONNA DO THIS SOME DAY!!! 😍 THANK YOU EMMY FOR DOING THIS!!!
Hello 👋 how are you doing
You can use your vegetable scraps to make stock before you compost them! I keep mine in a gallon bag in the freezer until it's full (usually just under a week), then boil in a large pot until they're pretty mushy. Strain them out, then compost. To avoid getting too much stock, boil it after the straining and make a stick concentrate. You can even keep the stock in the freezer and keep making it stronger and stronger.
I love composting! I have no special method either, but this is the ultimate way of recycling, the soil is beautiful, and it does not smell at all!
Hello 👋 how are you doing
@@jamesglenn641 Hi! Doing well and you?
@@spreest9537 I'm good I'd like to know more about you if you don't mind 🙂
These look so good! Also, I save my veggie scraps for making stock, I always have a jar or two in my fridge :)
i never thought it was this simple to make hash browns like this thanks for showing us
I just made these and I added sauteed onion to my mixture. I also used my biscuit cutter cause I didn't feel like messing with making them square. They were so yummy.
Great video! I used to make potato pancakes the same way except I just grated the raw potatoes into a bowl and added 1 egg and some flour to thicken up the grated potatoes and a little bit of seasoning salt. I didn't cook the potato twice like you did either. I just used a tablespoon and placed a tablespoon of grated potatoes into a hot cast iron pan and cooked the potato pancakes till they were a golden brown color. Less waste I guess and faster except the uncooked grated potatoes will turn brown quicker due to being exposed to the surrounding air.
Dear Emmy. You are already a genius, but if anyone else is reading this, my top for perfectly rolled out hash brown patties, cookies, or burger patties, is to set a DVD or a CD case beside the roller ensuring that the thickness is regulated to the width of a CD or DVD, since most people have those around the house, they make great rolling guides for total perfection. :)
Those little potato squares looked like heaven!!!!
