One was spiced orange-cranberry sauce leftover from Thanksgiving dinner, and the other was chopped peaches tossed with brown sugar and cinnamon. I had put the latter in the freezer back in the summer, looking forward to a bit of culinary sunshine in winter. It worked! Last night we used two non-traditional toppings on our latkes.

I'll have to keep this one in mind...And topping latkes with tapenade and muhammara is such a good idea. I have all the ingredients, so I'll be making those topings for sure. Thanks!

Take shifts frying and tasting...I did this with a blintz-making party last Shavuot, and it was a lot of fun.

I'm having a party on Saturday night and I'd prefer to spend my time in the living room with my guests, and not in the kitchen, hovering over a frying pan. Two questions, for clarification - 1. In the recipe, you say 1/4 to 1/2 c of all-purpose flour. In the instructions, you mention matzo flour. Which would you suggest I use? 2. About how many latkes will this recipe yield?
