Tips:

  • Use Yukon Gold potatoes: Yukon Gold potatoes are the best choice for mashed potatoes because they have a smooth, creamy texture and a mild flavor that pairs well with the other ingredients.
  • Peel and cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent some pieces from being overcooked while others are still undercooked.
  • Boil the potatoes in salted water: Salting the water helps to flavor the potatoes and prevents them from becoming bland.
  • Drain the potatoes thoroughly: This will prevent the mashed potatoes from being watery.
  • Use a ricer or potato masher: A ricer will give you the smoothest mashed potatoes, but a potato masher can also be used. Avoid using a blender or food processor, as this will make the mashed potatoes gluey.
  • Add the cream cheese, butter, and milk while the potatoes are still hot: This will help them to melt and incorporate evenly.
  • Season the mashed potatoes to taste: Add salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste. You can also add other herbs and spices, such as rosemary, thyme, or nutmeg.
  • Serve the mashed potatoes immediately: Mashed potatoes are best served hot and fresh. You can keep them warm in a slow cooker or chafing dish if you need to.

Conclusion:

Martha's Mashed Potatoes with Cream Cheese are a classic comfort food dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste.
