Hash browns have been around since the 1800s — they were once called hashed brown potatoes — and they’ve been a staple of American breakfasts for as long as anybody can remember. So of course the Trader Joe’s frozen food lineup wouldn’t be complete without them. In fact, Trader Joe’s has a few variation on this breakfast food in their freezer aisle, but today we’re focusing on the ones simply called Hashbrowns (one word). This take on the dish comes in patty form.
This is a simple meal — the ingredients on the package only list five items. Having made hash browns from scratch in the past, we can agree that this is a dish that doesn’t require huge amounts of additives. A simple plate of hash browns is just fine by us.
One of the ingredients is salt, and you can definitely taste that here. These are quite salty — in fact, we’d compare these to a side of fast food french fries. We enjoyed that saltiness, but we also found that dipping the patty in a bit of ketchup helps to offset that salty flavor a little bit.
