Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold or russet potatoes are best for mashed potatoes because they have a high starch content, which makes them fluffy and creamy.
  • Boil the potatoes in salted water: Salting the water helps to draw out the starch from the potatoes, making them more fluffy.
  • Drain the potatoes well: Be sure to drain the potatoes thoroughly before mashing them. Excess water will make the potatoes gluey.
  • Use a potato ricer or food mill: A potato ricer or food mill will give you the smoothest, creamiest mashed potatoes.
  • Don't overmix the potatoes: Overmixing the potatoes will make them gummy. Mash them just until they are combined.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins: Cheddar cheese, corn, salsa, and green onions are all great additions to mashed potatoes. Get creative and try different combinations to find your favorite.
  • Serve immediately: Mashed potatoes are best served immediately. If you need to make them ahead of time, keep them warm in a slow cooker or chafing dish.

Conclusion:

Cheddar corn and salsa mashed spuds are a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are creamy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. Follow these tips to make the best mashed potatoes every time.
