Steps:
- 1. Peel potatoes, if desired, and cut into 2-inch chunks. Place the potatoes and salt in a large heavy saucepan. Add cold water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer, cover, and cook until potatoes are very tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain well.
- 2. Return potatoes to the pan. Mash with a potato masher, an electric hand-held mixer or by working through a ricer.
- 3. Stir buttermilk, chives, salt and pepper into the potatoes. Return pan to low heat to re-heat potatoes through. Serve.
Tips:
- For a creamier texture, use Yukon Gold or russet potatoes.
- Don't overcook the potatoes; they should be tender but still hold their shape.
- Use a ricer or food mill to get the smoothest mashed potatoes.
- Add the buttermilk and chives gradually, until you reach the desired consistency and flavor.
- Season the mashed potatoes to taste with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- For a more indulgent dish, add a knob of butter or a drizzle of olive oil.
- Serve the mashed potatoes immediately, or store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
