Soggy hash browns? Learn how to make crispy homemade hash browns from fresh potatoes, with a golden crust and simple steps you can follow at home.
In this video, I show you how I shred and rinse the potatoes, squeeze out excess water, and cook them in a hot skillet with bacon grease. Along the way, I explain why starch and moisture matter, how thin to spread the potatoes, and what to look for before flipping.
Pull up a chair and join me in the kitchen.
INGREDIENTS
• 3 potatoes
• About 2 tablespoons bacon grease, plus a little extra before flipping
• Salt and black pepper to taste
• Water for soaking and rinsing
You can use cooking oil instead of bacon grease.
