Categories     side-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 pounds boiling potatoes, peeled
Kosher salt
1 1/2 cups milk
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large pot. Cover the potatoes with cold water and add enough salt so the water tastes quite salty. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 10 to 12 minutes, until the potatoes fall apart easily when pierced with a fork.
  • Meanwhile, heat the milk and butter in a small saucepan, making sure it doesn't boil. Set aside until the potatoes are done.
  • As soon as the potatoes are tender, drain them in a colander. Place a food mill fitted with a small disc/blade over a glass bowl. Process the potatoes through the food mill, turning the handle back and forth to force the potatoes through the disc. As soon as the potatoes are mashed, slowly whisk in enough of the hot milk/butter mixture to make the potatoes very creamy. Add 2 teaspoons of salt and the sour cream and pepper and whisk to combine. Taste for seasoning and serve hot.

Tips:

  • Choosing the right potatoes is essential for the perfect mashed potatoes. Look for starchy potatoes like Russet or Yukon Gold, as they will give you a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Peel and cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces for even cooking. Cutting the potatoes into large chunks will result in a lumpy texture.
  • Bring the water to a boil before adding the potatoes. This will help prevent the potatoes from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are tender enough to be easily pierced with a fork. Overcooking will result in mushy potatoes.
  • Drain the potatoes thoroughly before mashing. Mashing the potatoes while they are still wet will result in gluey potatoes.
  • Use a potato ricer or a food mill to get the smoothest mashed potatoes. A potato masher can also be used, but it will take more effort.
  • Add the butter, sour cream, and garlic to the mashed potatoes while they are still hot. This will help the ingredients blend together smoothly.
  • Season the mashed potatoes with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings to taste.
  • Serve the mashed potatoes immediately, or keep them warm in a slow cooker or a chafing dish until ready to serve.
