Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:About Шаблон:Infobox food Hash browns, also spelled hashed browns and hashbrowns, are a popular American breakfast dish consisting of finely julienned potatoes that have been fried until golden browned. Hash browns are a staple breakfast food at diners in North America, where they are often fried on a large common cooktop or grill.[1]

Hash browns are a popular mass-produced product sold in refrigerated, frozen[2][3] and dehydrated forms.[4]

History

Hash browns first started appearing on breakfast menus in New York City in the 1890s.

Originally, the full name of the dish was "hashed brown potatoes" (or "hashed browned potatoes"), of which the first known mention is by American food author Maria Parloa (1843–1909) in her 1887 Kitchen Companion, where she describes the dish of "hashed and browned potatoes" as a fried mixture of cold boiled potatoes which is folded "like an omelet" before serving.[5]

The name was gradually shortened to "hash brown potatoes".[6]

Etymology

The word hash is derived from the French word "hacher", which means to hack or chop.[7] This means hashed browned potatoes literally translates to "chopped and fried potatoes".Шаблон:Cn

A chef may prepare hash browns by either grating potato or forming riced potatoes into patties before frying with onions (moisture and potato starch can hold them together); however, if a binding agent is added (egg or flour for example), such a preparation constitutes a potato pancake.Шаблон:Cn

Hash browns are sometimes made into patty form and frozen for ease of handling, and the compact, flat shape can also be cooked in a toaster oven or toaster. For best results, in both cooking and flavor, it is recommended that hash browns be made using starchy potatoes such as russet potatoes.[8] If a dish of hash browned potatoes incorporates chopped meat, leftovers, or other vegetables, it is more commonly referred to as hash.[1]Шаблон:BSN

Hash browns are also manufactured as a dehydrated food, which is sometimes used by backpackers.[9]

In the United States, hash browns strictly refer to shredded or riced pan-fried potatoes, while diced and pan-fried potatoes are called country fried potatoes or home fries.[1] Some recipes add diced or chopped onions.[10]
