Smashed potatoes are the best! I always use red potatoes when I make them; they have the exact texture for this dish. These are so delicious!

BUTTERMILK MASHED POTATOES
Steps:
- In a large pot, bring 2 quarts of water and 1 tablespoon of salt to a boil. Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut them into 1 1/2-inch cubes. Add them to the boiling water and bring the water back to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 10 to 15 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 disk/blade over a heatproof bowl. Pass the potatoes through the food mill, turning the handle back and forth. As soon as the potatoes are mashed, stir in the hot milk mixture with a whisk or rubber spatula. Add enough buttermilk to make the potatoes creamy. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and the pepper, and serve hot. To keep the potatoes warm, place the bowl over a pan of simmering water for up to 30 minutes. You can add a little extra hot milk to keep them creamy.

FLUFFY BUTTERMILK-MASHED POTATOES
Buttermilk and a smidge of baking soda work together here to create an impossibly fluffy potato side dish. We like to finish ours with an extra pat of butter that melts into a golden pool while we set the table.

Steps:
- Place the potatoes and 1 teaspoon of salt in a medium saucepan and add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes can be pierced easily with a fork, about 10 minutes. Drain, reserving a few tablespoons of the cooking liquid.
- Place the potatoes in a large bowl and mash partly. Cook the buttermilk in a saucepan over low heat to just barely warm it; do not let the buttermilk get too hot or it will separate. Add it and the baking soda to the potatoes and mash completely.
- Stir in the butter, additional salt and the pepper to taste. If you like very creamy mashed potatoes, add the reserved cooking liquid. Serve immediately.

BUTTERMILK BLUE CHEESE POTATOES AU GRATIN
If there is only one potato recipe you want to try, then this one has to it! it is an amazing potato dish, that will have you drooling at the table lol! This is a killer potato recipe, and one you should not pass up. Although the original recipe does not state to par-boil the potatoes, I always do this for a layered potato dish, it cooks in a much lesser time. You can use one (10-ounce) package of frozen broccoli pieces that have been steamed, in place of fresh, I have even made this dish without using the broccoli and pimento for garnish, it is still a "killer"! Make sure your buttermilk is at room temperature before using for the recipe. This buttermilk blue cheese sauce recipe can be used for a number of other recipes also.
