Classic Potato Latkes

Classic Potato Latkes are crispy, golden patties made with shredded potato, onion, and egg, then pan-fried to perfection and topped with a cool dollop of Farmhouse Organic Crème Fraîche, smoked salmon, and fresh dill. Simple, savory, and deeply comforting, they’re perfect for holiday tables or cozy winter meals.
