Reheat them in a hot oven, set at 400\u00b0 or even 425\u00b0. They should be ready in 10 to 15 minutes, and you can check to make sure they&#8217;ve thawed and warmed through with an instant-read thermometer.<\/p>\n<h2>Potato Pancake Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2037233\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Potato-Pancakes_TOHD24_31290_JonathanMelendez_11.jpg\" alt=\"Close up of Taste Recipes's Potato Pancakes served on plates with chives on a brown marble surface.\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Jonathan Melendez for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How do I dry the grated potatoes?<\/h3>\n<p>Place the shredded potatoes between two paper towels or layers of cheese cloth and gently press down on them to remove excess moisture.<\/p>\n<h3>What should I serve with potato pancakes?<\/h3>\n<p>Anything, really.
