How to Make Potato Latkes – Family Favorite Breakfast
Latkes deliciously crispy potato pancakes are the specialty of the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. But it’s actually the oil not the potatoes that’s important to the holiday. As the story goes ancient Jews used the small amount of oil they had to rededicate their Temple in Jerusalem and the oil lasted eight days so Jews light candles for eight nights.
Every year my father would fry latkes (pronounced LOT-kuz) in a pan of hot oil but he was bothered by how quickly his grated potato batter turned gray from exposure to air. So he set out to create a better latke recipe.
