Thread: "Hash browns" humble taters...

He posted a photo of Parmentier potatoes, saute pots are cut into cylinder shapes.

Hacher is to chop finely.

A Hash, as it relates to food, is a course mixture. Comes from the French hacher, which means "to chop". Brown means it has been browned. The processed shit I posted are riced and chopped potato (no doubt plus a load of other shit merkin companies like to add) mixed together and browned. So although they are shit hash browns, hash browns they are.

I would much prefer to eat the pommes lyonnaise you suggest, but that would need to be a in a thread not about Hash Browns perhaps? Seeing as they are not Hash Browns?

Savvy?

Dad is of 100% Swiss background. Mom is a mix...always told Scot/Irish. Not sure though. Maternal grandmother's maiden name was Burden, which sounds English to me.

Well that explains it then - mind you, their rosti is what AO calls Hash Browns. Perhaps the problem is that in that fine lovely country of people called the US of A, they tend to forget that most things they think are American are derived from European foods with a slightly different name? But who are we to argue about it. It's all good fun and games and all friends together, eh?

Anyway, the only dilemna with these real AO hash browns is if they are cooked using waxy potatoes, rather than floury ones. They have the propensity to turn into a slippy chewy cow pat.

Think you need to get the fuck out the kitchen, and get back to the cow shed.

Are you on something.

Maris piper or King Edward obviously. Why do you ask?

I'm just an interested outsider that knows nothing about food.

Rumour has it she also calls spaghetti... wait for it... 'noodles'.

Pseudo,

Another possible way to make hash browns so I've been told is to cook them in there skins as a jacket, and just before they go soft is to blast chill them and skin them and grate its supposed too make the potato drier.

what you reckon pseudo bullshit or not

don't know - go and try it and make a thread about it Googleboy.

I'm surprised you don't know you know everything else.

Those look like what I do with leftover mashed potatoes. Didn't know they were called "boxty".

Did he say hash browns are French I always thought they came from USA, and the US got the idea from the Swiss that use raw pots for rosti, then again I'm not really a history bot on food.

That's right.






But my family were serving me "hash browns" in the style that you say is the Frenchy thing...and my wife served me the "rosti" style. Her background is German/Italian. Something's fucked up.

Yaso - what are you banging on about now? I said the name came from a FRENCH word, which it does.

Maybe as a Europhile kid going to school you were teased telling all your friends that for supper the night before you have filet mignon with pommes lyonnaise. So the next time, they said "It's corned beef and hash potaiders" which made you Monsieur Populaire in school the next day.

So corned beef thrown into saute potatoes Lyonnaise...

I'll let you believe in your fantasy world.

No Pseudo will tell you that's the correct way, though it has to be fray bentos.

I'm gonna red you all the way to Arkansas

Anyway, no, the potato has not been fried with onions. At least you get that this is largely tongue in cheek unlike some other posters like YASO, AO, KITT... oh dear


.... hash brown shower?

Pseudo Did you work with Jamie Oliver?
