Substitution Description Ingredient
I also use zucchini, carrots, sweet potatoes, spinach and other veggies either on their own i.e. zucchini latkes or mixed with the potatoes.
Matzo meal can be used instead
I use whatever is in the house
Bread flour can be used for more rise in the pan
Can be left out for a more savory taste
Odense is a great and recommended brand here
Save the egg white for later
Large granulated decorating sugar can also be used
Make a rue from oil and flour, then and water from the potatoes to desired thickness
Instant potatoes: prepare instant potatoes to make 1 cup using all water (no milk). Use 1 1/2 cups hot water for potato water in recipe.
12 tbsp butter (1 1/2 sticks)

In the 1920s they would have made sour cream with cream and a little bit of vinegar
