Savory Herb Potato Pancakes, also known as latkes, have a rich history dating back to Eastern Europe. Traditionally served during Hanukkah, these crispy delights are made with grated potatoes, onions, and a blend of savory herbs. The addition of smoked salmon elevates the dish, adding a luxurious and smoky flavor that perfectly complements the earthy notes of the pancakes. Renowned chefs like Yotam Ottolenghi have put their own spin on this classic dish, incorporating unique herb blends and serving them with a side of delicate smoked salmon. In terms of the best version of this dish, New York City's Russ & Daughters is a legendary spot known for their exceptional smoked salmon and potato pancakes. To make the perfect Savory Herb Potato Pancakes with smoked salmon, it's crucial to get the texture of the pancakes just right – crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Additionally, using high-quality smoked salmon is essential to achieving the perfect balance of flavors. For a twist on the traditional recipe, some chefs also add a dollop of creamy dill-infused sour cream to complement the smoked salmon.
