Hash Browns
I've tried a variety of hash browns, all being slightly different from the
east coast to the west coast of the US. The hash browns you buy already made here in the UK are very poor in comparison and contain mainly potato, and perhaps a little onion if lucky! Are there any spices used in the US style hash browns, perhaps paprika or cumin?? Any recipes and tips for creating authentic style hash browns will be very much appreciated. Kind Regards Steve Walker Hull, East Yorkshire UK |

I'm not sure what you're looking for but I can guarantee there is no cumin or paprika in either one. Lots of salt & pepper, it's the key to both. Having said that, you can pretty much do anything you want to with your potatoes. I like to dice them, sprinkle with salt & pepper, toss them in a frying pan with oil along with some onion, garlic, and sprinkle with some (yes) hot Hungarian paprika. It's not typical but there you have it. The typical ones are just browned in oil potatoes with diced onion. There's nothing really special about hash browns except they taste good :) Jill USA |

I'm really fond of Carolina Low Country cooking, and also Greek
cooking. One day, I came up with the following funky bunch of hashbrowns, and I've been doing it often since. * Cubed potatoes of three kinds (Yams, Sweet potatoes, Irish) in equal parts. * Butter * Brown Sugar * Red and Green Bell Peppers chopped * Onion Chopped (I like yellow ones for this recipe) * Garlic grated * Some Caraway seeds * Some Fennel seeds * A little Beer In a rather large skillet, I melt the butter over medium/high heat, add the brown sugar until it makes a little sauce. Throw in the chopped onion, garlic, cubed potatoes, and bell peppers. Stir a bit while they are frying. After a few minutes, turn the temperature down a bit, put in as much beer as you like, add the caraway and fennel, cover with a lid, and cook until tender. There not only good at breakfast or lunch. . .They're good anytime of the day. I like them with those BBQ tenderloins I put Marv Woods rub on, which we were talking about last night.

ups.com... > That sounds like Jewish chremselach (the "ch" is a velar fricative -- it sounds like you're clearing your throat). Cook potatoes, mash them, add whole raw egg, add grated or finely-chopped onion (though I think some people consider the opinion optional -- but heathens will say anything), salt, pepper (no paprika). Fry in pan. Most people fry this in oil. Many fry this in chicken fat (shmaltz), but then it will taste very much like chicken, I am told. This is almost traditional for a side dish on Passover. |

German potato pancakes are shredded potatoes with onion, packed tightly into pancakes and quickly fried until golden brown in hot oil in little pancakes. Got it? |

Start off with boiled potatoes. Fry them in butter or oil. Add some onion of you want, or bits of ham or bacon. |

Shredded raw onion? That sounds like potato latkes, which are fairly tradition among Ashkenazi Jews during Chanukah, basically because wintertime that was probably all we had to eat: potatoes and onions. |

Exactly the same concept. I shouldn't have to explain this to you ;) Jill |
