How does this taste like?? Interested in trying it out. What would you make with a side dish or something with this?

They taste a lot like hash browns if you've had those. If not, just make them! They are delicious and easy (obviously)!

Oh, now I want some with applesauce. That is the best. Almost makes me want to run to the grocery for eggs!

Applesauce makes a great dipping sauce...but you should try them with some sour cream! It really sets them off into a different dimension. Gotta try this recipe, looks great!

That looks really tasty! But what exactly is matzah meal...? I haven't seen if before.

Fry in schmaltz if your arteries can take it. It's really good.

I ♥ latkes especially on a cold winter night.
BTW they taste better with apple sauce on top!
