Cast iron skillet
Kitchen towel
Whisk
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Peel the potatoes and set into a bowl of cold water to prevent browning until ready to use.
2
With a box grater, or the grating attachment of a food processor, finely grate the potatoes. Repeat the process with the peeled onions. Optionally, you can pulse the peeled onions in the bowl of a food processor until finely chopped.
3
Transfer the potatoes and onions to a clean kitchen towel set over a large bowl. Gather the corners of the towel and squeeze to remove as much water as possible, allowing to drain into the bowl below. Set aside. After a few minutes, a layer of potato starch will settle at the bottom of the bowl. Pour off the excess liquid, making sure to reserve the potato starch.
4
Add the eggs, salt, and pepper to the bowl and whisk to combine with the reserved starch. Add the grated potatoes and onions and mix thoroughly. Set aside.
5
Heat a 10-inch cast iron skillet on the stove over medium-high heat. Add the oil, swirling to coat the skillet, before adding the potato-onion mixture. You should hear an immediate sizzle. Gently spread into an even layer before transferring to the center rack of the preheated oven. Let bake for 1 hour or until the top is golden brown and the sides are releasing easily from the pan. Let sit for at least an hour.
6
Once the kugel is room temperature or still slightly warm, slice into squares and garnish with chives and optional flaked sea salt before serving.
