On today's episode we head to the kitchen to learn how to make latkes with our very own Chef Annie. You might want to check out the video version on our YouTube channel for the best experience with this episode.
Annie even let us share the recipe below:
Ingredients:
2½ pounds Russet Potatoes, scrubbed well
1 medium Yellow Onion
Coarse Salt & Black Pepper
3 Large Eggs
½ cup Potato Starch
½ teaspoon Baking Powder
1 cup Vegetable Oil
Directions:
Scrub potatoes well under running water with scrubbie.
On the large holes of a box grater, grate potatoes & the onion.
Toss with ½ teaspoons of salt & then in two batches, place pota mixture into a clean dish towel to squeeze out the excess liquid
Transfer to a bowl & mix in eggs, pepper, potato starch and baking powder.
Place vegetable oil in a skillet & heat over medium heat. Drop bit of potato mixture into oil to test - it will sizzle when ready.
Each latke should be 2 tablespoons of mix. Place into hot oil a flatten. Cook until crisp & golden, about 4 minutes per side.
Drain on a paper towel & serve warm with toppings.

SHOW US YOUR TALENT!
If your KSDS student has a talent to share with the podcast it can be video recorded in one of two ways. The first option is to film the video at home and email it to dyankellow at ksds.edu with the subject “Podcast Talent.” Names will not be used when sharing videos on the podcast and we ask that names are not used when recording as well. The second option is to have the video filmed at school. The podcast team, including Mr. Y, will be available during various recess times to film students at school.
There is no deadline to submit a video, but videos should be no longer than 1 minute in length. This is going to be an ongoing segment in the podcast throughout the year. However, we will only be using a limited number of videos spread out among podcast episodes. Submitting a video, or recording one during recess, does not guarantee that it will appear in an episode or that week’s episode.
