Potatoes for Hash Browns ( How to Parboil ) image

I used to go to a tavern for breakfast on the weekends from time to time. The cook there made the best hasbrown potatoes. She finally told me what the secret is to having good hashbrowns. You need to partially cook the potatoes first. Raw potatoes have a tendency to absorb the grease and stick together. Any kind of potato can be used but I prefer the Yukon Golds or red potatoes. You can use these in my Recipe #78432 recipe.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Yield 5-6 potatoes

Number Of Ingredients 2

5 -6 medium unpeeled yukon gold potatoes or 5 -6 medium red potatoes
water

Steps:

  • Put the potatoes in a large pan.
  • Cover with cold water.
  • Bring water to a boil over high heat.
  • As soon as the water starts to boil, turn the heat off but keep the pan on the burner.
  • Let the pan of potatoes stand on the burner for about 5 minutes,depending on the size of the potatoes.
  • Larger potatoes may need more standing time.
  • Drain all of the water from the pan.
  • Allow potatoes to cool enough to handle.
  • Store the potatoes in a bowl in refrigerator until ready to use.
  • Storing the potatoes in a plastic bag tends to make them "sweat" and softens them, which could cause them to go bad sooner(that has been my experience in the past.).
  • If you do store them in a plastic bag, use them within a day or two to ensure freshness.
  • Use the potatoes for hashbrowns or fried potatoes.

These hash browns are a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love them, and they don't even realize that they're eating potatoes and vegetables.

I love that these hash browns can be made ahead of time. I often make a big batch on the weekend, and then I reheat them during the week for breakfast or lunch. It's a great way to save time and still have a delicious meal.

I added a little bit of chopped onion and green bell pepper to my hash browns, and it really took them to the next level. I highly recommend adding some veggies to your hash browns if you're looking for a more flavorful dish.

I used Yukon Gold potatoes for my hash browns, and they turned out great. I think they're the best potato for hash browns because they're so fluffy and flavorful.

I was skeptical about parboiling the potatoes, but it really did make a difference. The hash browns were so much more tender and flavorful than when I've made them without parboiling.
