Hash Browns for the Freezer

The 8 Yukon Gold potatoes left in storage were starting to grow little sprouts-time to turn them into hash browns.

Wash potatoes. Cut out any spots, sprouts, etc. Slice in half. (Or the size convenient for your shredder.)

Place in large dutch oven with enough water to keep from boiling dry.

Cover and turn on high. Cook on high about 20 minutes. Should come to a boil. Turn off heat and let set a few more minutes. Remove lid and allow potatoes to cool enough to handle.

Run through shredder.

Wrap in plastic wrap in portion size. Here I did approximately 2 cups in plastic wrap. Then bagged the packages to help keep them together in the freezer.

To use: Place frozen or thawed hash browns in hot oil or butter in skillet. Fry. Flip and break up occasionally to ensure cooking thoroughly.
