Why is it that I can bake cakes, pies, cookies, bread, and other assorted yummies, but I can't make hash browns? This is a MAJOR problem for me. Can someone help me and tell me how they make theirs?
What exactly is happening? Because I hear you shouldn't use a food processor with potatoes because of the glutin (?) in them????Originally Posted by lookingglass

I use a food processor to shred the potatoes, but the key is to rinse them really well in cold water to get rid of the starch, otherwise you end up with glue.Originally Posted by kluchetta

I love McDonald's hash browns!Originally Posted by StarryEyedTiGeR
McDonalds makes mine(but only once or twice a yearI don't eat too much fast food)
But, ohhhhhhh, so tasty!Originally Posted by halfpint
Oh and I alway's use Bacon fat to fry them in ( not real heart smart)
My father swears by putting them in the freezer for a few after you shred. Hes not a cook, just makes excellent breakfast.Originally Posted by lookingglass
I believe I've found my flaw... I'm putting too many in the pan at once. Also we are using olive oil, I think I should use an oil with a higher smoke point.
