It is time for another McDonald's copycat recipe. After making these delicious Egg McMuffins, and Chicken McGriddles, we're making McDonald's hash browns this time. These mouthwatering hash brown patties made from shredded potatoes are cooked to be fluffy inside and crispy and toasted on the exterior. Since no other recipe even comes close to the original and, in my opinion, doesn't merit the moniker "Copycat recipe," the primary cause is wrong or missing ingredients. This recipe has been waiting patiently to be published. Thus I'll walk you through the process of making these hash browns in the McDonald's way today. The best part about them is that you can prepare them ahead of time and freeze them for whenever you're ready to cook them. The Best McDonald's Hash Browns Copycat Recipe I'm not sure about you, but I consider McDonald's hash browns among their most delicate items. They're great in the restaurant, but I think my version is much better when it's cooked at home! Once you try these easy and delectable homemade hash browns, you'll be addicted. That has certainly been the case for me. So far this week, I've cooked these for breakfast nearly every morning. Making these McDonald's hash browns at home is also great because no harmful ingredients are added, which I appreciate. My meal should not contain anything like sodium acid pyrophosphate or hydrogenated soybean oil! The original McDonald's hash browns don't contain any cheese, cayenne pepper, or other additives. Still, I see most, if not all, online versions that do—missing essential flavors, such as those from beef stock and a little sugar. But don't worry; you're going to create something genuine. The second item that appears to be ignored by everyone is confit cooking. Cooking anything in fat or oil at a reduced temperature is known as confit cooking. Because it changes the starch within, most restaurants "double fried" their potatoes. As a result, it becomes even crispier when you re-fry it after chilling. Confit, indeed, yep. Ingredients you'll need Okay, to prepare these delectable McDonald's hash browns, you just need some basic ingredients. And while this recipe calls for a few more ingredients compared to standard hash brown recipes, they are more than worth it. Here is all you will need to prepare this simple hash browns recipe: Russet Potatoes Salt Sugar Pepper Cornstarch Vegetable Oil (sunflower or rapeseed) Dry beef stock powder Since Yukon potatoes have excellent consistency, I occasionally use them to create hash browns, but any potato would work in this recipe. Because the original recipe calls for russet potatoes, I've included them. Regarding the oil, McDonald's uses a blend of rapeseed and sunflower oils. Any neutral high-heat oil, such as canola oil, avocado oil, peanut oil, or macadamia nut oil, can be used. How to make McDonald's Hash Browns Copycat Once more, making a homemade hash brown that tastes like the one from McDonald's couldn't be simpler. To make them, you only need to follow a few simple steps. And the steps in the procedure are basically peeling, grating, straining, shaping, and frying. You'll find this recipe incredibly straightforward to create, even if it's your first time cooking hash brown patties from scratch. And, to be honest, once you've prepared these hash browns, cooking them again and again will be simple. Now, let's start with the recipe and quit wasting time! Step 1: Prepare the potatoes. The potatoes must first be peeled and placed in a dish of cold water to prevent browning. Use a box grater's big hole to shred the potatoes. Fill the bowl with cold water, then stir the potatoes well. Drain off the water when it becomes cloudy. Then, move the chopped potatoes to a mesh sieve or strainer and squeeze them to remove most of their extra liquid. Step 2: Confit Cooking To get the restaurant quality hash browns, I advise you don’t skip this step. A non-stick skillet should be heated at low heat. Add the potatoes to the hot oil and cook them for 5 to 6 minutes. Before continuing, strain the potatoes and let them a little period of cooling. Step 4: Combine the ingredients and form the hash brown patties. Combine the potatoes in a bowl with the sugar, cornstarch, dry beef stock powder, salt, and pepper—Transfer 1/4 cup of the hashbrown mixture on a piece of parchment paper afterward. Make a rectangle out of the potatoes by flattening them. Add another 2-3 tablespoons of the potatoes on top, then fold the parchment paper over the top to help create the patties. Repeat these final two procedures with the remaining hash brown mixture until you have about four large patties. Step 5: Frying and Serving Next, add the oil to a nonstick skillet and heat it over medium-high heat. After that, add the hashbrowns and fry them there for a few minutes on each side or until golden brown. How To Store Hash Browns You are aware by now that this McDonald's hash browns recipe yields around four patties. Don't worry if you can't eat them all or decide to double the recipe since they really keep nicely. You may keep the cooked hash browns in the refrigerator for up to 5 days in an airtight container. By the way, you can freeze the hash browns for up to 10 months if you want to store them for even longer. Just make sure the bag is freezer-safe. This is the approach I normally take. I usually prepare an extra batch of these McDonald's hash browns since I like preparing and eating them so much. The excess batch is simply frozen, so it's available anytime I need a quick side for breakfast. In any case, I advise using parchment paper to line each patty in order to keep them from adhering or disintegrating. Reheating Hash Browns The simplest method to reheat hash browns is to put them in the microwave and cook them for 20 seconds at a time until well hot. Alternatively, you may bake your hash brown patties at 350°F for 15-20 minutes, or until they are well cooked, on a baking sheet coated with parchment paper or foil. This is the best approach if you want them to crisp back up. McDonald's Hash Browns Recipe Ok, time for more detailed recipe instructions. Ingredients 3 Russet Potatoes 1 tsp of Salt 1 tsp of pepper 1 tsp of sugar 6 tbsp of Cornstarch 2 tbsp of Vegetable Oil (sunflower or rapeseed) 1 tsp of dry beef stock powder Instructions Peel and cut the potatoes, then put them in a bowl of cold water so they won't turn brown. Next, grate the potatoes thru the large hole on a box grater. Add cold water to the basin, then stir the potatoes well. Drain the water after it has become murky. To release most of the liquid, move to a strainer and press. On low heat, preheat a nonstick skillet. Add the potatoes to the heated oil and cook for 5 to 6 minutes. Before continuing, drain the potatoes using an oil strainer and give them a little time to cool. Combine the salt, pepper, dry beef stock powder, and cornstarch with the potatoes in a bowl. Put 1/4 cup of the mixture on a piece of parchment paper. Make it flat, like a rectangle shape. Add another 2–3 tablespoons of potatoes on top, and then fold the parchment paper over the top to make it flat. You can make the patties with the help of paper. Do the same thing with the rest of the mix. Add the oil to a nonstick skillet that has been heated to medium-high. Add the hashbrowns to the skillet and cook them for a few minutes, turning them occasionally, until golden brown all over.

Finally, it's time for a homemade Korean Kimchi Recipe. My grandma makes the best kimchi and I can vouch for that. This kimchi is the real deal. It is authentic, delicious, and classic. Kimchi is a great side dish for any meal. It also makes some of the most delicious Kimchi creamy dip, Kimchi Fried Rice, Spicy Kimchi Tofu Stew, and Kimchi Pancakes. This recipe is a treasured one that I will always keep. This Grandma's Classic Kimchi recipe is one of my most treasured. It was an honor to learn from her and, best of all, it tastes damn good. It is my pleasure to share this traditional Korean Kimchi recipe with all of you! What is Kimchi/Kimchee? Kimchi, also known as kimchee, is a traditional Korean dish that's made with fermented and salted Napa cabbage. Marinated and fermented vegetables are used to preserve them during winter. Although Napa cabbage is the most popular vegetable used to make kimchi carrots, radishes and cucumbers are also used. There are many kimchi recipes, which vary according to the season and region they were made in. It is easy to make vegan kimchi, you just need to keep plant-based ingredients. Kimchi is readily available and affordable, but I would always advise you to make your own homemade kimchi. Although it can take some time to prepare the vegetables, unlike other fermented foods like bread, beer and kombucha, it is mostly an easy process. Kimchi can be kept in the refrigerator for quite some time, making it a versatile, economical and simple-to-prepare dish. How does Kimchi taste? Kimchi has a very unique taste which makes people love it or hate it, this is mostly due to some people don't like sourness. Kimchi's taste is complex and can vary depending on the recipe. Kimchi will have three main flavors: umami, spicy, and sour. The vegetables you use, the fermentation time, and the amount of sugar or salt used will all affect the taste. Kimchi is a fermented food, so its predominant flavor is usually sour. The bacteria that produces lactic acid during fermentation gives kimchi a spicy, spicy flavor similar to sauerkraut. If garlic is used in kimchi, the flavor intensifies during fermentation. Kimchi can be spicy depending on the amount of pepper used and the type of pepper. What do I love about kimchi/kimchee? Besides being one of the healthier food, kimchi has definitely got something addictive regarding its flavor. There are many wonderful flavors. It has three distinctive flavors: garlic, sour, and spicy. Also, kimchi has a certain level of crispiness which adds to the fullness of experience while eating. Is homemade Kimchi really spicy? It all depends on what type of kimchee is made and/or bought. You can make your own kimchI, which is less spicy than some. Why is homemade kimchi more delicious than store-bought? As I've said before, this kimchi recipe will amaze your taste buds. And as you know, most homemade recipes are better than store-bought, in some cases even better than in restaurants. Some other reasons why is homemade kimchi version better: Homemade kimchi is much cheaper With some tweaks, you can make it your own recipe Share with family and friends It's fun! Can American cabbage be used as a substitute? I wouldn't advise, it won't be the exact same. Napa cabbage has different properties, it is more crunchy and overall makes way better kimchi. Can I substitute red pepper powder with gochujang? No, don't do that! Although gochujang is a red chili paste, you shouldn't substitute it with red pepper, because the texture is totally different. For how long should kimchi be fermented? Kimchi is fermented for at least one day. Usually, Kimchi is fermented from 1-3 days at room temperature or 21 days in the fridge, depending on how sour you want your Kimchi to be. After opening your kimchi jar, it can stay fresh for up to a week at room temperature, and for up to 6 months refrigerated. While refrigerated your kimchi keeps the fermentation process, but if you don't like your Kimchi to sour, you can use it for up to 3 months. If Kimchi becomes too sour, but you don't want to throw it away, try mixing it into some dishes with a milder flavor, like rice. Can regular salt be used for Kimchi? My grandma explained to me that thick sea salt is better than salts like Morton and Diamond kosher salt. It makes cabbage soft and withers and also removes too much moisture. Look out for coarse sea salt grains. What if I don't have red pepper powder for Kimchi? Okay, I have a small discomfort because everyone wants authentic cultural dishes, but not everyone is willing to pay for the authentic ingredients. :) This red pepper powder cannot be replaced with any other. This powder is the only powder if you want to make kimchi authentic. It is not the same as cayenne pepper. It is not the same as chili powder. It is not the same as red bell pepper flakes. It is not the same as powdered pepper flakes. It is not the same as Sriracha. How to make Kimchi Taste better? It should be left out for a longer time before it is put in the refrigerator. Is there a way to make homemade kimchi less sour? Place it in the refrigerator within 12-24 hours. After this, let it rest for at least one night and then place it back in the refrigerator the next morning. What type of jar should I use for Kimchi? I purchased half-gallon wide-mouthed jars. It is very simple to place kimchi into jars with wide mouths. Homemade Kimchi Recipe Ok, now that we know everything we need to know on how to make authentic Kimchi recipe it is time. Kimchi/kimchee is a favorite of mine, so I recommend making homemade kimchi. It's cheaper to make at home than to buy it in the grocery store. If you like this Authentic Korean Kimchi Recipe, share it with your friends and to your Pinterest board! Ingredients For the cabbage: 16 Oz Napa cabbage (cut into 1 inch size) ½ cup of sea salt 1 cup of water Seasonings for kimchi: ½ medium sweet onion ½ tsp of sugar 1 bulb garlic, peeled 4 TBSP cup of water ½ cup red pepper powder 1 bundle of julienned green onions Directions Cut the cabbage into 1-inch size pieces. Mix and Stir the Napa cabbage with the already prepared mixture of sea salt and water using a large bowl, until the sea salt has completely dissolved. Mix the cabbage using your hands. Allow it to stand for around 2 hours. Using a blender, mix the garlic and onion with 1/4 cup of water until you have a smooth paste. Combine the mixture in a large bowl. Add the red pepper powder, green onions, salt and sugar. To make a separate radish-kimchi separate the portion for radish kimchi. When the cabbage is ready, rinse nicely it to get rid of most excess salt. Toss it with the red pepper seasoning mix until the cabbage is well coated. The seasoned kimchi should be placed in a large jar (large-mouthed jar). With your fist, press the cabbage to compress the contents nicely. Continue filling the jar with the seasoned kimchi. If necessary, you can use another jar. Cover the pallet jars with a tight fitting lid and let them rest outside overnight at room temperature. The next day, taste the kimchi. If you like it more sour leave it out for another day or two. When the kimchi is according to your liking, you can place it in the fridge. Kimchi is a fermented food that can be kept in the refrigerator for a very long time. But I wouldn't say it lasts more than 6 months.
