IRISH FRIED POTATO BREAD AND IRISH BUTTER
These delicious potato pancakes are a wonderful way to use up leftover taters. (My mom used this technique all the time when I was young... such great memories!) The Crew and I had a tough time getting the Irish butter to the proper consistency, so we substituted store-bought butter instead. The results were still terrific.

Knead the butter until the color darkens and the liquid comes out of it. At this point you can add sea salt if you like... to taste... 1/2 tsp or more if you like. *** Irish butter is richer than American butter. American butter is only 30% - 35% butter fat.
