Potato Mousseline image

Here is a riff on the classic side dish that calls for running the potatoes through a ricer (if you don't have one, a splatter screen over a bowl will work just as well), the addition of brown butter and a sprinkling of grated nutmeg. The result is something just as comforting, but a bit more complex and flavorful. (And for everything you need to know to make perfect potatoes, visit our potato guide.)

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 pounds waxy potatoes, preferably Yukon Golds or fingerlings
Salt
3 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons butter
Whole nutmeg
Fleur de sel

Steps:

  • Peel potatoes and simmer in salted water to cover until tender, about 15 minutes. While potatoes cook, place cream in a small pot and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until reduced to about 2 cups.
  • Place butter in small pan and heat until it just begins to brown and it smells nutty. Set aside.
  • Drain potatoes and run through a food mill or ricer. Pass potatoes through a fine sieve into a bowl. (A splatter screen set over a bowl can work well. Move potatoes through screen with a plastic scraper.) Lightly fold in the cream.
  • Reheat browned butter if needed. Swirl browned butter into potatoes. Top with several grinds of nutmeg and a sprinkling of fleur de sel.

This recipe was a disaster! The potato mousseline turned out lumpy and bland.
