Lithuanian Potato Pancakes

Lithuanian Potato Pancakes

The simplest recipe for making BASIC Lithuanian Potato Pancakes

Naturally, you may come across numerous traditional variations depending on the Lithuanian Ethnic Region and the preparers talent at making it unique. What makes this recipe unique is the bacon, pork and sour cream that farmers added to the meal. A meal in Lithuania is not complete without sour cream.

The potato originated from the Western Hemisphere, introduced by the Spanish to Europe in the second half of the 16th century. The Russet Burbank potato was developed in Lunenburg Massachusetts. Most French Fries  are made from the Russet potato

The Maine potato may be the best for these potato pancakes. Only problem is by October / November of each year this spud is hard to get. They sell out the entire crop annually [with exceptions].
