Do you make your own hashbrowns?

I have found hashbrowns tricky to do at home. I think one secret is using high enough heat to brown them without cooking them forever. I hope you liked your husband's hash browns and I agree about potato skin and vitamins as well as fiber.

I have made them, I love hash browns. I usually always peel them and boil them for 2 minutes first them shred them using a grater and then shape them into hash brown shapes or squares and fry in a iron skillet that has oil added and hot so that they fry up nice and golden brown.

You got me curious about hash browns. I learned that hashed browns are a simple potato preparation in which potato pieces are pan-fried after being shredded, julienned, diced, or rice. I do something similar a potato jacket. I just wash the potato skin thoroughly and slice it add butter on it and put it in an oven or microwave. It is tasty. © ronaldinu 2008

I usually by my hashbrowns form the store. I have made my own though when I ran out of the store bought ones.

I have never made my own hashbrowns before I have never had hashbrowns with the peel still left on the potato either sound like they could be good though. I like the skins and you want to make sure to get the vitamins out of the potato.

yep i make my own with a few nice fat potatoes, and a cheese grater. and of course i like my hashbrowns cheesy. I don't use all of the skin though. A little skin is nice, too much though isn't so nice.

I have made my own hashbrowns before, but not with the skin still on. I leave the skin on my potatoes for most of the other things that I make with potatoes though. I think fresh made hashbrowns taste so much better than the store bought of frozen ones. Enjoy your breakfast. What else is he making?

I have never made hash brown from scratch before. Your husband has some wonderful cooking ideas going on there. I normally eat the store bought kind. And just the ones from McDonald's. That is about it. I love hash browns. I hardly eat them as often though. I never thought about peeling the skin off of it.. I am sure that it gives you extra vitamins. Just like with oranges..
