    Title: Classic Potato Latkes
    Categories: Potatoes, Vegetables
    Yield: 36 servings

    2 lg Russet potatoes; scrubbed,
    - quartered lengthwise
    1 lg Onion; peeled, quartered
    2 lg Eggs
    1/2 c A-P flour
    1 ts Salt; more for sprinkling
    1 ts Baking powder
    1/2 ts Fresh ground black pepper
    - oil; for frying

    Using a food processor with a coarse grating disc, grate
    the potatoes and onion. Transfer the mixture to a clean
    dishtowel and squeeze and wring out as much of the
    liquid as possible.

    Working quickly, transfer the mixture to a large bowl.
    Add the eggs, flour, salt, baking powder and pepper, and
    mix until the flour is absorbed.

    In a medium heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat,
    pour in about 4 inch of the oil. Once the oil is hot (a
    drop of batter placed in the pan should sizzle), use a
    heaping tablespoon to drop the batter into the hot pan,
    cooking in batches. Use a spatula to flatten and shape
    the drops into discs. When the edges of the latkes are
    brown and crispy, about 5 minutes, flip. Cook until the
    second side is deeply browned, about another 5 minutes.
    Transfer the latkes to a paper towel-lined plate to
    drain and sprinkle with salt while still warm. Repeat
    with the remaining batter.

    ... "Acquired taste" is an excuse to explain away bad food.
