tony b Posted November 12, 2016 Report Posted November 12, 2016 I would if I could find the Hawaiian garlic - while it was raw, it was very sweet. Unique flavor.
MacKenzie Posted November 13, 2016 Author Report Posted November 13, 2016 Thanks, sk. It is good to see that you are able to post again.

MacKenzie Posted November 13, 2016 Author Report Posted November 13, 2016 I made tater tots this afternoon and they were pretty good. I need a little more practice. This is the recipe I followed except for a couple of things. http://damndelicious.net/2015/04/10/homemade-tater-tots/ 1. Did not let the blanched potatoes get too cold. 2. I thought perhaps that if they were still a little warm that some of the moisture would evaporate. There was no need to squeeze out any moisture. Grated the potatoes, mixed in the ingredients, formed the tots and fried them. Grates and mixed with the flour and spices. Formed into 48 tater tots. Frying the first 5 TTs. This where I found out that I should have compacted the tater tots a little more, otherwise they tend to fall apart in the frying. Served with pork chop, carrots and parsnips. I think I would try this recipe for making hash-browns.
MacKenzie Posted November 13, 2016 Author Report Posted November 13, 2016 Thanks, Steve, they are tasty. I meant to put my shot of the super moon in and forgot so........ You can't really tell that it is any bigger than normal.
tony b Posted November 15, 2016 Report Posted November 15, 2016 Did you dust them with cornstarch (or anything) after forming just before frying? Was there any "trick" to forming them?
MacKenzie Posted November 15, 2016 Author Report Posted November 15, 2016 No I didn't dust them at all, Tony.:)
