Time 1h30m

Yield 12 to 15 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound butter, slightly softened
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into large dice
Kosher salt
2 cups milk
1 cup heavy cream
Small bunch chives, thinly sliced
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the smoked paprika butter: Combine the butter, paprika, salt and pepper in a bowl. Roll into a log, wrap in waxed paper or parchment and refrigerate until very cold.
  • For the mashed potatoes: Put the potatoes in a large pot, cover by 2 inches with cold water and add 2 tablespoons kosher salt. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, about 35 minutes. Drain the potatoes, run through a food mill set over a large bowl and rice until very fine.
  • Combine the milk and heavy cream in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over low heat.
  • Put the potatoes back in the pot, place the pot back over low heat and, using a wooden spatula, stir the potatoes to dry them out. Begin adding the cold paprika butter little by little, vigorously stirring with a wooden spoon until the butter is incorporated. (Adding the cold butter slowly will create an emulsion.) Slowly stir in the warm milk mixture bit by bit, and then switch to a whisk and whisk until light and fluffy. Fold in the chives and season with salt and pepper.

These mashed potatoes were a waste of time. They were bland and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly and my mashed potatoes turned out lumpy. I don't know what went wrong.

These mashed potatoes were good, but I think I would have liked them better with a little more garlic.

I'm not a big fan of mashed potatoes, but this recipe changed my mind. The smokiness from the paprika and the freshness of the chives were the perfect combination.
