Directions Wash the potatoes well and peel the onion.
Some people like to peel the potatoes, but it isn't necessary. If you do peel the potatoes, cover the peeled potatoes with cold water so they don't turn grey. Grate the potatoes and onion. The large grater disc makes ones that are most like your grandmother's, if she used the large side of the cheese grate, but the small shredders taste better. Don't use the metal blade unless you want latkes with a very smooth texture, like the ones from a mix.
