Freezer hashbrowns
Last night one of my regular customers came in and said she was just on her way to get potatoes from the store becasue she was spending today making hasbrowns for the freezer. Our grocery store has a 15 pound bag of potatoes on sale for 78 cents!
So today i googled how to do it, took a bag of potatoes we had used half of and made me some hash browns.
First I scrubbed all the potatoes
Then I put them in the oven at 350 for an hour. But check them after 45 minutes or so. I had small potatoes so I kept checking so they wouldn't get over done.
Once cooked, you need to cool them. I put mine in the fridge for a couple of hours. then I used a knife to peel them. Once they were peeled I shredded them. Be careful, they are soft and break. I shredded half of the potatoes put them in the freezer on a cookie tray and when they were frozen i put them in a freezer bag, got all the air out and now i have shredded fresh hashbrowns.
With the other half of the potatoes i chopped them. I like chopped hashbrowns better then shredded when I make cheesy potatoes. But I did the same things with the cubbed as with the shredded. The potatoes are in gallon size freezer ziplocks and I made 12 of them. So for less then 1.00 I have enough hashbrowns to last me a few months. It was easy and something I will do again. Beats spending 2.00 or more on one bag at the store.
I know, not many pictures my camera won't take good pictures anymore. Not that the ones I posted were good but they are better then the other ones. There are other ways you can do them, like boiling the potatoes but this just seemed the easiest.
