No onion from my German grandma. Potato pancakes was a specific meal
that included home made applesauce, sour cream cucumber salad and the
pancakes. One of my favorite meals. I'm going to have to do this
sometime in the new year. Thanks for reminding me. I tend to get
hung up on rotating specific meals/recipes.
