POTATO NIK



Potato Nik image

After living in what must have seemed like every neighborhood in three boroughs, my mother's parents, in their old-ish age, settled in Astoria, which is where I spent almost all the Thanksgivings of my childhood. Thanksgiving was always (in my memory) gray and blustery, and my grandmother's kitchen, steamy. She produced, almost solo, the traditionally ridiculous abundance of food, including my favorite, the potato "nik," a huge latke fried in chicken fat until really brown, and as crisp as perfectly done shoestring fries. I still make this, and so can you.

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

About 2 pounds baking potatoes, like Idaho or russet, peeled
1 medium onion, peeled
2 eggs
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons plain bread crumbs or matzo meal
Neutral oil, like corn or grape seed.

Steps:

  • Grate potatoes and onion by hand or with grating disk of a food processor; drain in colander or strainer. Combine potatoes and onions in a large bowl with eggs, salt, pepper and bread crumbs or matzo meal.
  • Put about 1/8 inch oil in a large, deep skillet, either nonstick or seasoned cast iron; turn heat to medium-high. When oil is hot (it will shimmer) put all the batter in pan, and smooth the top. Cook, shaking pan occasionally; adjust heat so mixture sizzles but does not burn. Continue until bottom is nicely browned, at least 15 minutes.
  • To turn, slide cake out onto a large plate, cover with another large plate and invert. Add a little more oil to pan if necessary, and slide pancake back in, cooked side up. Cook 15 minutes or so longer, until nicely browned. Serve hot or warm.

I got this recipe from a British grandmother. It is hands-down the best potato kugel my family (and most of my guests) ever tasted. It's fabulous served hot with sour cream. It's also incredible put in a cholent overnight.

POTATO ROLLS



Potato Rolls image

I have been eating these rolls since I was a kid. I don't know where they started out, but I remember my grandmother making them. They freeze well and taste great split open and toasted.

Time 2h45m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast
¼ cup warm water
1 cup scalded milk, cooled
½ cup prepared mashed potatoes
¼ cup vegetable shortening
¼ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 egg, beaten
4 ½ cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast in warm water in a bowl. Let stand until the yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
  • Mix milk, mashed potatoes, shortening or butter (see Cook's Note), sugar, and salt together in a bowl; add yeast mixture and egg. Stir 2 cups flour into the milk mixture until incorporated. Stir in remaining 2 cups flour to make a soft dough.

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 2 baking sheets.
  • Shape dough into 24 rolls and place onto prepared baking sheets; let rise until dough springs back when you touch the side of a roll with your fingertip, about 25 to 40 minutes.
  • Bake rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

POTATONIK OR POTATO NIK EITHER WAY, IT'S DIVINE!



Potatonik or Potato Nik Either Way, It's Divine! image

My parents are from Brooklyn NY (coming from an Aussie this might sound strange) but my parents migrated to Melbourne in the early 1960's. From the age of 7 onwards every summer vacation we would visit the family in Brooklyn NY. The things I looked forward to most on our visits was of course the original Nathan's and on Brighton Beach Avenue there was Mrs. Stahl for Potatonik. Halfway between a kugel and a lava hot greasy potato brick which was so wonderful on cold winter days. I assure you, this concoction is heaven! The original recipe was posted in the NY Times food section.

Time 3h

Yield 6-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast (1 packet)
1/4 cup warm water
1/4 teaspoon sugar
6 large potatoes, peeled (idaho's or russets work best)
1 large onion
2 eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (make sure it is fresh)
1 tablespoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper (or more to taste, fresh-ground is best)
2 1/2 cups flour (all-purpose)
additional oil (make sure it is fresh)

Steps:

  • Dissolve yeast, water and sugar in a small bowl. Let rest 10 minutes (until foamy).
  • Grate potatoes and onion by hand or in a food processor.
  • In a large bowl, blend eggs, 2 tablespoons of oil, salt and pepper. Stir in the grated potato and onion mixture. Add flour and dissolved yeast, mix well (mixture will be thick). Cover bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a draft-free area for about 1 hour.
  • Pour oil into a 9" x 12" pan about 1/4" deep. Pour in the batter (the oil will come up and over the batter - This is good). Let the batter rest for about 20 minutes. Then preheat your oven to 375°F.
  • Bake potatonik on middle rack for 45 minutes. Brush or dip a paper towel into some more oil and brush/pat the top of the potatonik with the oil and bake another 10 to 15 minutes, until golden brown and crusty. Serve hot.
  • Note: potatonik can be refrigerated for several days or frozen for 1-2 weeks. Reheat at 325° until warm, or develops a hard crust.

POTATONIK (YEASTED POTATO KUGEL)



Potatonik (Yeasted Potato Kugel) image

The yeast makes this less dense and a little more breadlike than a regular potato kugel. This recipe is from George Greenstein's wonderful cookbook, "Secrets of a Jewish Baker." Serve with sour cream and/or applesauce.

Categories     Yeast Breads

Time 1h10m

Yield 3 loaves, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup warm water
1.5 (1/4 ounce) packages active dry yeast (scant 1 1/2 Tbsp)
1 1/2 cups bread flour unbleached all-purpose flour
3/4 lb potato, skins on (about 1 1/2 medium potatoes)
6 ounces yellow onions, ground or grated (1 1/4 medium onions)
1 small stale rolls (torn or crumbs) or 2 slices old bread (torn or crumbs)
1/2 cup bread flour or 1/2 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
scant 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup lightly beaten egg (about 2 extra-large eggs)
shortening, for greasing pans

Steps:

  • Sponge: In a medium bowl sprinkle the yeast over the warm water; stir to dissolve. Add the flour and mix until smooth. Cover and set aside until it puffs up (20 to 25 minutes).
  • Dough: Stir down the Sponge. Scrub the potatoes, then grind or grate them with the skins on or process in a food processor into a coarse chop; do not puree. Transfer to a large bowl. Add the ground potatoes and onion to the Sponge and stir until blended. Add the stale roll, flour, salt, baking powder, and ground pepper; mix or pulse only until incorporated. Add the oil and egg and mix well. Drop the mixture out into 3 well-greased 8- or 9-inch loaf pans. Each loaf should weigh about 15 ounces. Leave room for expansion - the potatonik will rise in the oven.
  • Baking: Bake with steam (see below) in a preheated 360 F oven until the crust is brown and feels firm when gently pressed in the center with your fingertips (about 1 hour). Let cool on a wire rack covered with a cloth for 5 minutes to allow the loaves to steam. Invert and tap out onto the rack. Serve warm. DO AHEAD: Potatonik can be refrigerated for several days or frozen for 1 to 2 weeks. Reheat at 325 F until warm. When reheating, I like to bake it for 35 to 45 minutes to develop a hard crust.
  • Steam in Baking: Place an empty roasting pan or other heavy pan on the floor of the oven 5 to 10 minutes before baking, so it gets hot. Brush the tops of the loaves with water, place in the oven and carefully toss 6 to 8 ice cubes into the hot pan, or pour in 1 cup boiling water and immediately close the oven door. CAUTION: When using boiling water, wear a glove and keep your face away from the open oven door, since there will be a burst of live steam when the boiling water hits the hot pan. Do not open the door to peek or the steam will escape.

HELEN ART'S POTATO "NIK"



Helen Art's Potato

A big potato pie, one of my grandmother's favorites. She made this in a big cast-iron skillet, usually without butter, but it is better this way and can usually be made a couple of hours before eating; it remains quite crisp. Serve to a crowd, along with a stew or roast.

Yield makes 8 or more servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 to 4 pounds baking potatoes, peeled
1 large onion
3 eggs
Salt and black pepper to taste
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs, preferably homemade (page 580), matzo meal, or flour, or as needed
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons corn, grapeseed, or other neutral oil

Steps:

  • Grate the potatoes and onion on a box grater or with the grating disk of a food processor; if the mixture is very moist, drain in a colander or strainer for a minute.
  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the salt, pepper, and bread crumbs. Stir in the potatoes and onion. The mixture should just barely hold together if you pinch a bit; if it does not, add a few more bread crumbs.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Put the butter and oil in a 12-inch nonstick, ovenproof skillet over medium heat. When the butter melts and bubbles, pour the batter into it. Cook for a minute or two, then transfer to the oven. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes, or until nicely browned on the bottom; slide the cake out onto a plate (it will hold together). Cover with another plate, then invert the plates. Slide the pie back into the pan, cooked side up, and return to the oven until the bottom is brown; this will take only 10 minutes or so. Remove from the skillet and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
