L is for Latke
L is for Latke. We are still with Yiddish today, the source of many of my favourite words. Latkes are a pancake made from grated potato and onions. If hummus is nectar of the gods, latkes are what they have for afters. I'm not sure you would have latkes with hummus ... my instinct says not. I feel sad now because Monkey is in Japan and she was my latke daughter, Tish is not bothered so I have not had any for ages, but you know what, I can see some coming in my near future. That takes us back to the Cooking and Sewing post from 2011, that is also one of my most visited posts, for the instructions for making latkes.
Somehow I've never had a natural opportunity to have latkes, so I might just have to make my own!
ReplyDeleteI never had latkes but it sounds like something I would like although probably not with too much onions.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day.
