S&P was too modest to post this, so I will! (He gave me permission)
Salt and Pepper's Recipe for Potato Pancakes:
2-2/12 lbs potatoes , peeled and shredded on a box grader into ice cold water. leave in the water so they don't oxidize. Leave for 30mins or more.
In a bowl, add 2 whole eggs + 1 egg white,mix in 3/4 cup of flour, 1/4 tsp salt,1/4 tsp pepper,1/4 tsp cayenne pepper. Mix with a wire whisk until smooth an keep cool in the fridge.
Next, drain potatoes well. With a clean dish towel or cheese cloth ring out as much water as you can to dry the potatoes, place into a bowl and add wet ingredients and 1/2 large onion, grated, and mix well.
with about 1/4 inch of oil in a heated pan,(I use cast iron) Brown the pancakes on both sides. I use English Muffen Rings to make them uniformly round. You can use egg rings but the english muffin rings have higher si des and just make a thicker potato pancake. Of corse you don't need the rings at all. Enjoy, Joey
