Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold, Russet, and Red potatoes are all good choices for mashed potatoes. They are starchy and have a smooth texture when mashed.
  • Cook the potatoes correctly: Boiling the potatoes is the most common method, but you can also bake or steam them. Make sure to cook them until they are tender but not mushy.
  • Use a ricer or food mill to mash the potatoes: This will give you a smooth and lump-free texture. If you don't have a ricer or food mill, you can use a potato masher, but be sure to mash the potatoes until they are very smooth.
  • Add milk, butter, and seasonings to taste: The amount of milk and butter you add will depend on your desired consistency. Start with a small amount and add more until you reach the desired texture. Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.
  • Bake the mashed potatoes in muffin tins: This will give them a crispy top and a fluffy interior. If you don't have muffin tins, you can bake the mashed potatoes in a casserole dish.
