Hot water

Cook’s Note

The Weils like it fried with onions, the Zelicksons prefer theirs in big pieces and crispy, the Johnsons want it slushy like scrambled eggs and the Papers and Harrises love it any which way. Everybody likes it served with sour cream and strawberry jam or cinnamon/sugar or maple syrup.
