Hash browns have a rich history dating back to the 19th century, with roots in Swiss cuisine. This beloved breakfast dish made its way to the United States, where it gained popularity in diners and homes across the country. Chefs like Joseph French and Art Gunther are credited with popularizing hash browns in the US. Today, the best hash browns can be found in diners across the Midwest and Southern regions, where they are often served crispy and golden brown. Achieving the perfect hash browns involves grating potatoes finely, squeezing out excess moisture, and frying them to a crispy perfection. Some chefs also add onions or seasoning for extra flavor.
