Perfect Mashed Potatoes

Course Side Dish
Servings 2 People

Ingredients

  • 4 large boiling potatoes peeled
  • water
  • 4 Tbsp Butter
  • 2/3-3/4 c Milk heated
  • Salt pepper
  • Optional: garlic butter, pesto, basil, sun-dried tomatoes, strong cheese

Instructions

  • Cut the potatoes into circles 1 inch thick, cover with salted water in a saucepan.
  • Bring to a boil and simmer until tender.
  • Drain, return to saucepan and add butter.
  • Crush the pulp with a masher using an up and down motion. Don't over mix.
  • Add the heated milk and mix with a gentle up and down motion.
  • The potatoes should be fluffy. It is better to have them a little thin at first as they "set up" as they sit.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

I personally don't like the flavor of white pepper and don't use it. Some don't like to see black specks in their food. It is up to you.  A ricer is an option instead of a masher. It is hard to get the right texture by using an electric beater. It tends to over whip and the potatoes can get gummy.
