THE Latkes Recipe of Hanukkah | Home Movies with Alison Roman

[@alisoneroman]

Thanks for watching and happy Hanukkah! What’s your favorite way to eat latkes?

[@djalexas1]

With a pretty Jewish girl who made them for me... yup still single

[@Bayshore958]

Love them with apple sauce.

[@lleyrah]

Can you use a mandolin? Or does it have to be with a box grater?

[@judiesuh6858]

Well..Koreans must be Jewish in our former lives. We make potatoe pan cake like with just the potato and pinch of salt and couple tablespoon of rice powder..why? b/c Korea Gang Won providence produce one of the best potatoes in the world!! Happy Hannukah Alison~

[@judiesuh6858]

@@Bayshore958 Really? Lakkahs are eaten with apple sauce? Learn something new!🙏👏

[@ninecatsmagee8384]

Dear Allison, not only do you consistently make what I love in the best possible way, you have the best video team, the most amazing editor and a closing jingle that I want to steal for my podcast.

[@alisoneroman]

I absolutely agree with all of this-- we are so lucky to have them

[@Marcel_Audubon]

Gush much?

[@sandiegovince7]

Hey Alison, instead of squeezing the potato and onion mixture by hand, here’s a tip; put all the mixture in a tea towel and put it in a salad spinner. Whiz.. whiz… all the water cones out in seconds.

[@jennifercamille16]

I'm not Jewish, but I absolutely love latkes lol. Luckily, growing up around a lot of Jewish friends exposed me to these delicious treats. 💛 Happy Hanukkah to you, Alison!!

[@kaiju_k5042]

My step dad is Jewish so I've been enjoying amazing food since I was 12, this is legit one of the best things you can make and eat :)

[@donnaleesalerno]

Some here!

[@left_thigh]

SAME!

[@AbigailThinks]

Haha, same! Had my first latka in 3rd grade and never looked back. I make them whenever I need some fried tots

[@lees5073]

My Jewish son in law makes the latkes around here. Fabulous. Never reject a leftover latke. My Episcopalian next day breakfast: Recrisp those babies in a dry iron skillet, top with full fat skyr yogurt and a slice of homemade gravlax and extra dill. At 11am, a Bloody Mary is the best companion.

[@SusGob711]

10/10 stars for the editing team-latkes look pretty solid too! Will most definitely be busting out my food processor to grate though 😂🥴🩹

[@mr.a.]

I absolutely love this recipe! I lived in Boca Raton for 22 years and has a very large Jewish population and boy did I eat my share

[@S23K]

YUM! I can also recommend cheese cloth to wring out the water from the potatoes :)

[@mahsashamsai]

Your dedication to the crunch is commendable. Too soon for new year goals? Thank you Alison.

[@jaxxon9]

I love that you use your hands ~ all of your senses are enlivened!

[@faredsharudden]

It’s the fact that Alison has been continuing the measuring the-water-and-starch-from-the-potatoes game from NYT Cooking video to now this video is sending me outttt!

[@robertk2007]

Peace and love this love this holiday season! 🕎🎄

[@shawnbesabella]

I live for the editing your producers do

[@alisoneroman]

same

[@kimberlyconstantino7926]

You did it!! You’ve just got us covered girl! I knew you’d do it! Now we can make latkes confidently Bc it’s an AR method. Hallelujah!

[@Jlukecampos]

It's always super fun when david's on. You two have such fun interactions and banter

[@kevinbui8427]

Hi Alison, I made this for mothers day and everyone loved it. Had no chicken fat but it was still so delicious- looking forward to making many more in the future!! Thank you for always being amazing.

[@jessicafox7787]

I definitely had a chuckle, so thanks for that! Your "David" or producers/editors did a funny thing with the grating and timer situation. Bravo guys. And Bravo to Alison as always for entertaining us in the most natural way!

[@alisoneroman]

It's Dan on that one but I will pass it along ("David" gets credit for overall appeal lol)

[@danielhurwitz]

Dan, Daniel, “David,” they all work

[@neweverymorningmercy3491]

I love this channel...love it! The editing is so fun, everything is fun, you and your team do such a great job and to top it off I learn a lot about cooking. I'm not Jewish but Latke's look good!

[@donnaleesalerno]

Happy Hanukkah, Alison! 💙 Happy Latke Day! 💙

[@r.g8725]

Latkes - oh YUM. Potatoes, onions, savory, fried crisp. Definitely making this asap. Haven't before, but love {grated} hash brown potatoes, especially with cheese and green Chile, so going to try latkes that way, AND the 2 traditional ways Alison suggests.

[@pegparrish3512]

R G, how was your Thanksgiving party? I hope everything worked out for you and the dinner was delicious! Now, on to a Latke party!! It gets easier every year!! Enjoy...

[@Hanuska88]

this was so fun! love latkas

[@ray7419]

I’m not even Jewish and I love latkes. So delicious if done right. 👍

[@AlissaintheCity]

These look sooooo good. Boyfriend and I are challenging ourselves to make this.

[@imrichkusnir824]

Try serving them with Tatziki dip. The cool cucumber sour cream dill is amazing on this.

[@christinamock7264]

This came at the perfect time. I promised my family latkes tonight🤘🏽

[@nickfarhi9663]

Dear Alison, Love your recipes. Thanks for doing them! Can we perhaps learn your matzo ball soup recipe some day? Best Regards, Nick

[@jeaninewillig9910]

"Never try to explain science" excellent life advice from Alison Roman

[@alisoneroman]

it’s just not for me

[@anaribeiro7212]

I just absolutely love Alison and her filming crew! Awesome people and awesome food

[@MzShonuff123]

Girl, you sliced your finger in the Passover episode, too 😂😂 I’m begging you not to bleed for food and just throw those joints in a food processor 😂

[@alisoneroman]

i suffer for my art

[@droman0120]

Now those are some very nice looking Latke babies:) Happy Hanukkah

[@victoriabernuth9728]

Well, you have the essential elements here perfectly presented: exquisite food to make us happy and the vodka to medicate us during these insanely challenging times & lastly videos delightfully presented.

[@Sumiicho]

Man the editing has me ROLLING🤣💀

[@kiwicitos]

SENSATIONAL editing on this one guys! Sound & vid fx!

[@leahs1550]

Aside from this incredible recipe, I’m here to say that you’re 100% correct and that they do ask Drew Barrymore to play a game in Scream!

[@marshaliss4526]

Alison Roman you are by far the best!!! ❤️️ ❤️️ ❤️️ Loved the video and the latkes I made for the first time turned out amazing thanks to you! You and your team are quite funny and entertaining! Happy Hanukah! If you get a chance would love the apple sauce recipe! ❤️️ You are invited to Minnesota anytime!

[@agajaniuk5027]

I'm polish and these are called potatoe pancakes and we used to make them quite regularly. My mum makes them on the smallest eye greater. It's really good too.

[@benaviberkowitz2115]

I'm lovin the whole invisible peanut gallery vibes these videos have lately.

[@LGLcreations]

Talk about reading my mind! I was JUST searching your IG and website to see if you had a latkes recipe!!!

[@kimbo12]

Alison's Drew impression, chef's kiss 🤌🏻

[@stephaniesamuel9569]

Nothing looks more delicious than this.

[@birdhouses7929]

I made your stuffing for Thanksgiving, it was a hit!! Delicious!

[@maymayrays]

The _entire_ grating sequence, I was wincing, waiting for a knuckle grate, _aaaand_ we have it 😣😩🤣

[@roksanacooking]

Absolutely delicious. Looks really awesome definitely delicious and incredible recipe. Thanks for sharing this yummy and tasty recipe 😋😋👍

[@CHarlotte-ro4yi]

Never knew those were a Jewish dish

[@Sbannmarie]

Agreed - I lived in Bavaria years ago.

[@masha_sw08]

Also know as very traditional Belarusian - draniki. My whole existence is now put to question 😂

[@Chickadee_]

Interesting comment! I'm marrying a Jewish guy and whenever he says something is "Jew food" I'm constantly confused.🤣 Then we argue (did Jews invent boiling a chicken?). My point is there are so many common dishes because Jews were nomadic and because of Kosher law, things they ate often, they became known for. In the end, we agree we are all people that just want to eat good food!🤗

[@Andrupenko]

it's not originally a Jewish dish

[@Lisa-vn4nf]

Great joke Dan! appreciate you always bringing your senes of humor off camera

[@davidcho0828]

Yeah, great joke, Dan.

[@alisoneroman]

I like to read this as if you're trolling Dan lol

[@Lisa-vn4nf]

@@alisoneroman gotta keep the banter going - @david cho wasn't thrilled when I voted for your joke over his

[@danielhurwitz]

@@Lisa-vn4nf as i always say, it's a hanukkah miracle

[@JacindasReactions]

I'm really looking forward to try these out...looks enjoyable

[@randysgutful]

I've never seen a more entertaining latke-based video.

[@gervaiselantier]

That was hilarious. These always make me laugh (and hungry!).

[@lilk7262]

always hyped to see you've posted a new vid ! side note - you could do so well in voice acting, you've got so much character ! :')

[@unknownkitchenchallenges]

You are the real star, it's just so much fun to watch you

[@dietzdesign]

Hi Alison. I’m checking out your channel after reading the New Yorker profile. Full confession, I didn’t know who u were until today. I have never met another person who ate chix bouillon as a kid. I also liked the beef bouillon cubes. Here’s to salt. I look forward to watching your channel in 2022.

[@margaretbenhamu7784]

I LOVE ur home movies!! I just found the latkes one six months late (or early depending on ur perspective) I am a Sephardic Jew and we call our latkes “edjeh”. They are made the same exact way. Believe it or not we will stuff a pita with edjeh and eat it like a sandwich. (I know it’s a double starch) but that’s how we eat them even on Hanukkah

[@jessicarosetti_]

The stop clock scenes killllled me 😂😂😂

[@katelinsu]

this is the best and I love how real you are about the vodka & latke party 😂

[@BSWVI]

Happy Hanukkah! Lucky enough to have grown up in Montreal, home of smoked meat, skinny bagels, and chalet BBQ chicken. And lacy latkes with sour cream, salt and pepper!!

[@meredithrand2818]

I need an Get Ready with Alison Roman series... make up..clothes.. I love her so much

[@simplymadeeats]

Yummy!! I gotta go with sour cream. These look delicious. Also, love your channel!

[@alysefriedman4684]

Sour cream and applesauce all the way. 🤩

[@TheKateAshe]

I never thought about the fact that latkes are indeed "just" Kartoffelpuffer. Looks delicious!

[@jeanneamato8278]

Happy Chanukah. Beautiful latkas.

[@patriciaredick9849]

Great video..lot's of fun. Thank you.

[@Lana-ld8vo]

I'm so excited to try these!

[@SaucyMamas]

Potatoes, sour cream, and vodka?! I’m in!

[@-Blynk]

Can you guys believe I bought the potato peeler literally 20 years ago in Kirkland,WA? Sur la Table was the store.. I have brought it back with me to Europe...still use it almost every day...it's just like a bought it yesterday

[@willbrockman]

חג חנוכה שמח!!!!

[@gussssie8374]

i say this with kindness DROP THAT APPLESAUCE RECIPE please

[@lucysmith6827]

I watch every video I can find where you're cooking or baking. I love you! PS: I DO have to turn down the speed since I'm a Southerner, and you talk faster than my ears can process.

[@bobbi12781]

I’m half Jewish and grew up celebrating both holidays, but realized very quickly that only one celebration included latkes…and very quickly identified a favorite holiday. 😉 (Also, this video really makes me miss Russ and Daughters…)

[@lahnaflore2621]

YESSSSS!!! A new recipe!!

[@daveyedid9248]

I feel that the minutes of strenuously grating onions and potatoes on a box grater connects me to my [imagined] shtetl matriarchs.

[@29channel]

Looks very delicious! I want to make it too!

[@erinfortney]

Strangely, this is not the first time I have heard of a "Latkes and Vodka Party"... it must be a thing! Chag sameach!

[@porto740]

What did you find strange about this?

[@yoyexka-angmaker5816]

Good job watching from Philippines

[@kelceycaulder7621]

Alison, I know it isn’t the point of the video but I must know the name/brand of the nail polish you’re wearing! Can you share? 🥺 Can’t wait to make these later! Big big fan!

[@debrakessler5141]

Happy Hannuchah!

[@agudam]

This was some top notch editing .

[@hannahmontoya3715]

You were ALMOST right about that scream line! Yes, “what’s your favorite scary movie” is the iconic line, and “wanna play a game” is definitely Saws, but in scream right before Drew’s boyfriend gets killed maskface tells her “I want to play a game” and he makes her guess scary movie answers. Lol so you knew what you were talking about!

[@WeberEnthusiast]

Amazing job , thanks for sharing another time cook up on the Weber this Xmas 👌👌

[@rebeccaros1001]

I went to liquor store today and looked for vodka you drank in wine glass. Very classy! I didn’t see a bottle that looked like yours. Can you share?

[@dianehutchinson9257]

David's outrage at being given potato chunks instead of proper hash browns was highly relatable, lol

[@davidcho0828]

FUCK POTATO CHUNKS

[@piscesmoon9055]

The editors really popped off on this one sis I laughed so much

[@fhgu8051]

Now i want to see you make gefilte fish! Really should try and do some latkes since they seam yummy.

[@Solana_OG]

hi, alison, long time viewer first time caller. you were right re: scream. they do play a game. killer asks horror movie trivia questions, which drew answers in the hope of saving her boyfriend's life (she fails). then, ultimately, game switches to "what door am I standing at," which drew answers in the hope of surviving herself (she fails). thanks for the latkes!

[@SkylarRose]

Im telling you right now I have no religious affiliation with latkes I only discovered them when Jenna & Julian talked about them and now I make them every other month or so 😭 topping them with sour cream and applesauce >>> also since I dont have a baby in my house I nearly never have applesauce on hand so whenever I end up making latkes I tend to make homemade cider and applesauce which is always soooo goooooood

[@helpfulcommenter]

I'm telling you right now I have no religious affiliation with wine.....

[@annette9179]

Can you teach us how to cook with and manage stainless steel pans?? Especially when a lot of oil has stuck to the sides, and how long we’re supposed to wait before we clean it, etc etc...

[@jaalahford1637]

Are sweet potatoes permissible? (less water). I'd have to use a kitchen cloth to squeeze.

[@janelledyann]

classic man Dan called OUT - made my damn day

[@davidcho0828]

YEAH! DAN!

[@diannedutton6127]

Just the way you made them. Sour cream, chives, etc.

[@alexandermclachlan3177]

Can you do this without egg? What would be the best substitute?

[@lovelydays_jen]

I was 100% bracing myself as you were power grating. I have the same box grater and it always gets me, too 🩸

[@maymayrays]

I found myself averting my eyes for the whole sequence 🤣

[@lisaanderson135]

Watching Alison grate the potatoes on the box grater scares me every time🩸🩸🩸

[@sketchfilms]

who is your editor? would like to hire them. SO WELL EDITED.

[@brookebraun561]

For any vegetarians (or just other Jews and Polish folks), saurkraut in place of the salmon eggs is delicious!!

[@Nancy3116]

Knew knew knew latkes were the next Home Movies. Question: I remember your previous latke recipe was fried in schmalz and butter. What happened? Did the butter sog up the latkes bc of the water content? I'm a super fan who's a Virgo.

[@bartoscar]

The editing gags were top-notch 😂

[@mnels5214]

I love the How Much Water game.

[@farinanoireet1596]

I realised today how much anxiety it gives me watching someone grate 😰😰 I love latkes though, and absolutely love Home Movies ❤️❤️

[@dhakaiyavlogwithsuma9086]

মাশাল্লাহ ভিডিওটা দেখে অনেক ভালো লাগলো

[@Tempestuu]

My mum is indian and they have a very similar kind of food to this, but I'm not sure what they're called. It's really cool to see different cultures have interpretations of the 'same' kind of base recipe and ingredients.

[@thugmonk9837]

We have a festival of lights too. Diwali

[@chuckz2934]

If you don’t cut yourself on the box grater your not really trying. Good job Alison!
