This was perfect, the texture was great and…
Mushroom Noodle Latkes
Here is an amazing Hanukkah recipe from Chabad.org. As you can tell, I love making latkes, and enjoy making latkes out of non-traditional foods, like apple or spinach & feta. So, I just had to try noodle-based latkes. And, one or our daughters was going to be home and she loves mushrooms, so this was…
Apple Latkes
Latkes aren’t just for lunch and dinner, we found a fun new way to start our day with latkes – Apple Latkes for breakfast! These latkes by Nigella Lawson are so good that you are going to want them at other times of the year. Then you can call them apple fritters or apple pancakes….
