• the day before, boil potatoes with the skins on until tender. cook enough to make at least 6 cups cold riced potatoes. peel the potatoes, and rice them. refrigerate them until needed.
• brown 2 to 3 pieces of bread in butter or margarine for croutons. cut into small pieces, and let cool.
• combine riced potatoes, 5 or 6 beaten eggs, salt, and flour. add croutons, and mix together. the mixture should stick together. too much flour will make them heavy.
