Use A Spiralizer On Potatoes To Give Latkes A Unique Presentation Boost
BY SIMONE GERBER
To switch up your annual latkes in a way that will speed up the cooking process, use a spiralizer on your potatoes to give them a jazzy new shape and texture.
A spiralizer quickly creates potato ribbons with far less elbow grease than using a box grater. Simply pile a few in on themselves to create a round latke with a swirling pattern.
To maximize your success with this method, place your freshly spiralized potato ribbons into cold water as you create them to prevent them from turning brown.
Additionally, don't hesitate to spiralize the onions that are included in classic latkes — this will make them more cohesive with the new texture and shape.
