Such German potato pancakes, in particular, bring back memories of going to the house of my mum and dad. My mom would make these frequently during my childhood and into young adulthood when we went over to their house. My brother and I would play cards with my dad at the kitchen table while my mom was standing over the stove with the crackling sounds and smells of Kartoffelpuffer frying filling the room. Before long, plates of hot German Potato pancakes were set on the table, and we helped to sprinkle powdered sugar and generous applesauce heaps. My mom also knows how to make these German Potato Pancakes big batches because my brother and I could never get enough of them.
