A Grating Experience


Latkes Frying, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
Friday night marked the start of Chanukah. Like all Jewish holidays, special foods (or fasts) are integral to the celebration. The miracle of the sanctified Temple oil lasting for eight nights inspired Jews the world over to eat fried foods during Chanukah.

Here were see latkes (potato pancakes) frying to a deep golden brown! To make latkes, we grate potatoes and onions, mix in matzo meal, egg, and seasonings, and fry!
