You are very welcome ! We grew up on the potato pancakes; then I made them for my own children.
However, once I enjoyed my Jewish friend/neighbor's "latkes" I was hooked on them as they were lacier & crispier.......plus she made them as "mini" latkes for her Hanukkah parties......constantly frying them up & replenishing the platter all through the evening.....they disappeared as quickly as she put them out......like magic.
So glad she moved to Vermont (via Brooklyn, Long Island, Lansing Michigan) & bought the home we sold to them when we moved to Florida in 1972. When we returned a year later, in 1973, we bought a home right across the street from them !
Great neighbors; great cook. All of her Polish Jewish cooking was very similar to that of my Ukrainian grandmother & mother plus my Polish mother in law's cooking..........nothing like the OLD ETHNIC RECIPES.
