Hash browns, also spelled hashed browns and hashbrowns, are a popular American breakfast food consisting of finely julienned potatoes that have been fried until golden brown. Hash browns are a staple breakfast item at diners in North America,[1] where they are often fried on a large, common cooktop or grill.
Hash browns are a popular mass-produced product sold in refrigerated, frozen[2][3] and dehydrated forms.[4]
Frozen hash browns are scored on color, defects, texture; grading also is based on flavor and odor.
