What are Hash Browns?
Hash Browns are usually shredded, lightly seasoned potatoes that are pan-fried to a golden brown color. We choose to bake ours because it requires less oil. We also really like making them into rounds. They are easy to flip, ensuring the crispy outside and soft and delicious inside. The rounds also make them easier to freeze and reheat in the oven or in a skillet at your convenience.

How do you keep hash browns from sticking to a fry pan?
This pre-seasoned pan not only conducts heat well (and holds it for the duration of the cooking time), but it also has a non-stick coating that will prevent pesky pieces of potato from sticking to its sides. To keep hash browns from sticking to your fry pan, ensure it’s adequately preheated before plopping in your spuds.
What temperature should a hash brown Pan be preheated to?
The proper temperature for your pan is medium-high. If it doesn’t feel hot enough, you probably need to let it preheat longer rather than turn up the temperature. Steady heat will ensure that the hash browns cook evenly on each side. Try not to move the patties around while you wait for them to cook.
