So what’s a latke? It’s a shredded Andean tuber, fried like a buckwheat pancake, which was substituted for Italian cheeses, once eaten to honor a mistaken reading of obscure variants of an apocryphal text. But it’s crispy, and delicious. theatlantic.com/entertainment/…
@YAppelbaum @nxthompson fried cheese crispies ... more of an inspired reading
@YAppelbaum I love Latkes. My mom made them all the time when I was a kid. ❤️
@YAppelbaum @davidfrum No onions? Madness. My husband makes these occasionally. Served with apple sauce.
@YAppelbaum Like the article, it’s an annual treat.
@YAppelbaum Terrible for you, but honestly I can't stop eating them. It's been a lifelong addiction and I plan to continue.
@YAppelbaum @davidfrum oh, i thought it was a kind of coffee. (im not a coffee drinker)
@YAppelbaum Is this going to tell me that they are really Palestinian food?
