[@zacharybender1096]

[@heyheytaytay]

lmao pear chai jelly indeed

[@KairuHakubi]

The ricer is basically just a big squeezer that has holes for the soft cooked potato to go through so when you use it on raw shredded potato, it won't go through the holes, but the water will. then you have a puck of squeezed potato left behind. pop that sucker out and you're good to go. MUCH easier than the tea towel method which I used for ages (and gets a tea towel dirty) also I never peel them. I don't know why anyone does. the peel's the best part!

latkes are a good recipe to post during the chanukah season, because that's when they're really eaten. latkes, if you add wheat flour or bread crumbs like you are here, make it a no-no for passover as it contains a leavened bread item (which is forbidden during the 8 days of pesach). i'm not trying to hate, this recipe looks lovely and the latke exposure is much appreciated, just saying that i suspect this was released in anticipation of upcoming passover and that strictly speaking it's not really appropriate for this holiday.

Nah, it's fine with matzoh meal. My question is who uses breadcrumbs? Latkes are perfect for using up that last half box of matzo meal. Well, unless you're in the no gebrochts club, in which case, enjoy your cremslach.

[@voiddiver1]

I JUST made this recipe but used duck eggs, I ended up having to use slightly more bread crumbs to hold the whole thing together but it was the best mess up ever, ended up giving them a delicious outer shell of crunchy goodness while the inside stayed firm but not crunchy. I ended up having to bake them (350 for around about 5-10 minutes) because I failed to add enough oil to the pan causing the outside that was touching the pan to cook quicker than the inside. However they turned out AMAZING

I've never made latkes, but the beginning of this video shows how I make breakfast hash. The wringing out is really necessary if you want to brown your hash because all that water will just boil off if not removed before it hits the frying pan.
