Making Great Latkes

Chanukah is next week, which gives you just enough time to perfect your latkes (unless they are already perfect, in which case a little practice still doesn't hurt). In a post titled The Complete, No-Nonsense, Slightly Neurotic Guide to Making Great Latkes, Max Falkowitz of Serious Eats gives you more than just a recipe; he explains the tricks behind making real latkes that aren't potato pancakes or hash browns, plus warnings about the many things that could go wrong and how to avoid them.
