THE BEST MASHED POTATOES

This is our go-to recipe for classic mashed potatoes, made with plenty of butter and cream. To make them fluffy and flavorful, be sure to simmer them slowly and add plenty of salt to the cooking water. And don't skip the step of steaming the excess water off; leaving too much moisture in the potatoes causes them to be loose and gluey.

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and quartered
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, cubed
