Squeeze all the water out of the soaked shredded potatoes, by hand or through cheesecloth, until light and dry; add them.
Add black pepper and salt, then the flour and baking soda; add the buttermilk a little at a time until it looks like a thick pancake batter.
Mixing the batter
Spoon in the batter and cook over about medium heat, so the inside cooks through, about 5 minutes per side until golden brown with crisp edges.
