Directions:
Grate potatoes by hand to retain bubbe's texture. Mix all ingredients in a bowl.
Cook on cast iron preheated skillet in a 500-degree oven. Skillet is placed on bottom shelf and not removed from oven. Spray lightly with Pam. Pan must be exceedingly hot; latkes must sizzle when dropped in pan. Latkes must also be very thin in order to cook properly. Cook 3 minutes on each side. I serve them directly from the oven, reheating them causes them to lose their crispness.
