Many people like to occasionally treat their family members with delicious potato pancakes, so you need to learn how to perfectly prepare this simple dish.
There are usually no special problems with the cooking technique, but there is one peculiarity: the potato pancakes can turn black.
This option is unlikely to suit anyone, because potato pancakes lose their appeal.
Therefore, it is worth using certain secrets that will not allow this to happen, notes Yulia Arkhipova, an expert in the field of cooking for the online publication BelNovosti.
What do they consist of?
The right variety of potato
If you are not an avid gardener, then you are unlikely to have a good understanding of the varieties of potatoes and the suitability of vegetables for various types of dishes.
However, there is a simple way to help you choose the right potato: just pay attention to the color of the skin. For potato pancakes, you should take a vegetable with a yellow color.
Vegetable order
Everyone knows that potato pancakes are based on two ingredients: potatoes and onions. Therefore, the onion should be chopped first, and it is recommended to use a grater.
When chopping potatoes, mix them with onions right away. In this case, the potato pancakes will turn out golden.
Supplements
Sometimes secret additives can help protect against possible color change. The best options may be lemon juice and regular sour cream.
