How to make perfect potato pancakes:

Peel and shred potatoes; place in a bowl of cold water. Line a colander with cheesecloth or a clean thin dish towel. Drain potatoes into cloth and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. Place potatoes in a mixing bowl. Beat eggs; add to potatoes along with onion, flour, salt and pepper. Mix well. Heat about 1/3 cup salad oil in a skillet until hot. Drop potato mixture 1/4 cup at a time into hot oil, about 3 inches apart. Flatten with pancake turner to make a 4-inch pancake. Cook pancakes until golden brown; turn and cook other side, about 4 minutes total. Remove to a cookie sheet lined with paper towel to drain. Repeat until all pancakes are cooked. Serve immediately or place in a warm oven until ready to serve. Top with maple syrup or applesauce. Yield: About 16 pancakes.
