Where can I find the best hash browns in the slope?

I like the ones served at the Chip shop with Brunch. Forget that... those are home fries.
I guess I don't even like hash browns.

In your grocers freezer.



I like to cook mine on a skillet in butter.Salt them a little and then dip them in sour cream.Mmm..I think I'll go buy some later.

^^Nope.Ketchup only with fries and on a hot dog.

Mmm.,..ketchup hot dog.Thanks for the reminder,BFF.I'm gonna have some for dinner tonight just for you!. :bounce:

^LMAO!

I grew up on LI, and we always had hash browns in the diners. Plus, my ex used to make them for me every weekend for breakkie. His family was Irish. I'd think anyplace with Irish immigrants would have them, no?

I still don't understand hash browns v. home fries.

I want potatoes, onions and seasoning (mostly salt and pepper). I hate that so many places put green peppers in them. Blech.

No red pepper (unless it's hot red pepper flakes). I hate all bell peppers - red, yellow, green or orange.

I do eat them cooked in things, like salsa, but anytime peppers are put into food and taken out, I can still taste their stink.

Flexi, if you are having trouble with the first question:
the potato chunks in home fries are much larger than hash browns.

Um I think salsa is raw?

Some are, some are cooked. Some I like, others I hate. Pico de gallo is raw, but doesn't have bell peppers. I think some of the stuff you see in a jar (Tostitos, etc.) has been cooked, which changes the taste.

not necessarily.

the ones at flatbush farm are really good but no longer on the menu.

that nails the definition for me.

Addition of peppers or whatever is an addition.

I think this is what messed me up. When my ex made them, he used big potatoes, onions and seasoning and called them "hash browns". So did his entire family and all of his friends.

^seriously :-)

Appplewood used to have a version of hashbrowns but I guess they don't anymore...

Your best bet is to buy them from the store:

I'm originally from the midwest and they are a staple on every breakfast menu...I don't know why it's all American fries out here? I've seen them in the south, the west and practically everywhere but New York. Strange.

They are very good and you can make them smothered, covered, and scattered to your expanding heart's content.

this sounds good from the site:
