Ora Domb's Potato Latkes Recipe - Cooking Index
Some cooks place the grated potatoes in a large sheet of cheesecloth or triple layers of paper towels and squeeze out all the water before mixing with the other ingredients. Others take a clean, empty can with both ends removed. Place the can on a plate; put some of the potato mixture in the can. Pack down, then slowly lift the can to make the latkes higher.
