Steps:
- Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and mash.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a skillet over low heat and cook garlic until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add garlic and butter to the mashed potatoes. Stir in until well combined.
- Add creme fraiche and mix until well combined. Mashed potatoes should still be hot. If mashed potatoes have gotten too cold, quickly heat them over low heat on the stove. Mix in cheese until melted and season with salt and pepper.

FRENCH MASHED POTATOES WITH CHEESE AND GARLIC (ALIGOT)
The finished potatoes should have a smooth and slightly elastic texture. White cheddar can be substituted for the Gruyere. For richer, stretchier aligot, double the mozzarella. Adapted from Cook's Illustrated, published March, 2009. Posted for ZWT5.

Steps:
- Place potatoes in large saucepan; add water to cover by 1 inch and add 1 tablespoon salt. Partially cover saucepan with lid and bring potatoes to boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until potatoes are tender and just break apart when poked with a fork, 12 to 17 minutes. Drain potatoes and dry saucepan.
- Transfer potatoes to a food processor (this step is important to get the aligot texture). Add butter, garlic, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Pulse until butter is melted and incorporated into potatoes, about ten 1-second pulses. Add 1 cup milk and continue to process until potatoes are smooth and creamy, about 20 seconds, scraping down sides halfway through.
- Return potato mixture to saucepan and set over medium heat. Stir in cheeses, 1 cup at a time, until incorporated. Continue to cook potatoes, stirring vigorously, until cheese is fully melted and mixture is smooth and elastic, 3 to 5 minutes. If mixture is difficult to stir and seems thick, stir in 2 tablespoons of milk at a time (up to 1/2 cup) until potatoes are loose and creamy. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

ALIGOT (MASHED POTATOES WITH CHEESE)
Somewhere between buttery mashed potatoes and pure melted cheese lies aligot, the comforting, cheese-enhanced mashed-potato dish from central France. The key to getting a smooth, airy texture is to rice the potatoes while they're still hot, then incorporate cold butter, hot milk and grated cheese over low heat. To build up the stringiness of that melting cheese, Ham el-Waylly, a chef at the Brooklyn restaurant Hail Mary, suggests whipping it with confidence, speed and vigor. This is what will create aligot's characteristic cheese strings: long and sheer, with some elasticity. "They should fight with you," Waylly says. While fresh tomme or Cantal is traditional, Gruyère or Comté work well, too.

Steps:
- Simmer the potatoes in water until very tender to the point of a knife, about 15 to 20 minutes. Drain potatoes, and tip out any remaining water from the pot. Push the hot potatoes through a ricer back into the pot. Over low heat, use a heatproof spatula to move the potatoes around the pot for a minute so that any excess water can evaporate.
- Add butter to the potatoes, half at a time, stirring until completely incorporated. Add hot cream, half at a time, stirring until incorporated. Add cheese a little bit at a time, stirring vigorously, until all the cheese is evenly melted and the spoon makes cheesy strings as you pull it away from the potatoes. If necessary, turn the heat up a little. Taste, and season with salt. Serve.
