Dehydrated Dried Hashbrowns From Costco

On a shopping trip to Costco I picked up a case of these dehydrated dried hashbrowns.  These hashbrowns come in small packages, and are labeled Golden Grill Russet premium hashbrown potatoes.

Unlike the frozen hashbrowns that take up valuable freezer space, these Costco hashbrowns are dried, so they are stored in a pantry.  The packages are really small, but they make a surprisingly large portion of the hashbrowns.  When the water is added to dehydrated dried hashbrowns, those hashbrowns really expand!  There is about 1 cup of dried hashbrowns in a package, and when prepared, it becomes 3 cups, so basically these hashbrowns become 3 times bigger when prepared!

Here are the cooking instructions for the dehydrated dried hashbrowns from Costco:

  • To prepare the dried hashbrowns from Costco, first add hot water to the carton, then close the carton.
  • Let stand for 12 minutes, then carefully drain the water from the hashbrowns.
  • Preheat 2 tbsp of oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat
  • Add the hashbrowns to the frying pan, and cook on one side for 3-4 minutes, until golden brown
  • For extra crispness, flip the hashbrowns and cook on the other side for 3-4 minutes, until golden brown.

I like my hashbrowns crisp and brown, so I always cook those Costco hashbrowns on both sides.

These dehydrated dried hashbrowns from Costco is a great thing to have in your pantry for an instant side dish.  Dried hashbrowns don’t take up much space, have a long shelf life and are quite tasty.

  1. I got these Hashbrowns in Costco, check to see if your nearest Costco has them (there should be a Costco in Portland Oregon).

  2. We began purchasing these several years ago at Costco. I see they are also available at Amazon but are more expensive. I love that they con’t take up freezer space and take only minutes to re hydrate.
    Highly recommend these!! :)

  3. I have purchased these before in the West Springfield Ma store but could not find them again. Did they discontinue carring them in this store ?

  4. I live in Temecula, ca & last week I went to Costco to purchase these dried potatoes & they said they are no longer carrying these potatoes. Sad day. They were the best! May try to order them from the web site.

  5. Our son is a commercial fisherman and freezer space is at a premium on the boat. He buys these by the case because of the ease of storage and also the fact that they are really good!!! We have been buying them ever since but find that they are quite seasonal at Costco and are not available all the time. So when they are, we stock up!!!

  6. try this sports fans, put the water in your hash brown box, wait till they are soft and expanded, in the mean time saute some onion, a half a large or a small, when soft add to the potatoes in your bowl, then add a 1/3d of a can of cream of chicken soup, no water, add spices, salt, black pepper, garlic powder or salt. mix well, then add enough flour to make the batch a little sticky and not runny, drop blobs of this into a fry pay with 1/8 inch oil and fry, just before your desired doneness sprinkle top with cheese, boom, super great
