Time 9h40m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, washed and rinsed
1 gallon whole milk
4 ounces unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Peel the potatoes and slice as thinly as possible on a mandoline directly into a large, 8-quart container filled with 4 quarts of cold water. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Drain the potatoes and rinse with clean, cold water; spin dry in a salad spinner. Transfer the potatoes to an 11-quart pot, cover with the milk and set over medium heat. Bring to a simmer, about 35 minutes. Reduce the heat in order to maintain a simmer and cook, uncovered, until the potatoes are fork tender and beginning to fall apart, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Reserve 1 cup of the cooking milk. Drain the potatoes thoroughly in a colander and return them to the pot. Press the potatoes through a ricer into a large mixing bowl. Add the reserved hot milk, butter and salt and use an electric hand mixer to whip on low speed for 15 to 30 seconds. Do not overwhip.

These whipped potatoes were a bit too bland for my taste. I think I needed to add more salt and pepper. Other than that, the texture was smooth and creamy. I'll definitely be trying a different recipe next time.

These whipped potatoes were delicious! The texture was perfect and the flavor was amazing. I added a bit of grated Parmesan cheese to mine for an extra cheesy flavor. Will definitely be making this again!

I'm a bit of a mashed potato purist, but I have to admit that these whipped potatoes are pretty darn good. They're creamy and smooth, with just the right amount of flavor. I'll definitely be making these again.

These whipped potatoes are a staple in my kitchen. They're so versatile and can be served with almost anything. I usually make a big batch and then freeze the leftovers for later. They're just as good when reheated.

I'm not a huge fan of whipped potatoes, but these ones were actually pretty good. They were light and fluffy, and the flavor was subtle but still satisfying. I could see myself making these again for a special occasion.
