SOUR CREAM MASHED POTATOES
Steps:
- Cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large pot. Cover the potatoes with cold water and add enough salt so the water tastes quite salty. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, for about 10 to 12 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 disc/blade over a glass bowl. Process the potatoes through the food mill, turning the handle back and forth to force the potatoes through the disc. As soon as the potatoes are mashed, slowly whisk in enough of the hot milk/butter mixture to make the potatoes very creamy. Add 2 teaspoons of salt and the sour cream and pepper and whisk to combine. Taste for seasoning and serve hot.

Tips:
- For the best results, use Yukon Gold or Red potatoes. These varieties have a creamy texture and hold their shape well when mashed.
- Peel and cube the potatoes evenly so that they cook evenly.
- Bring the potatoes to a boil in salted water. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from becoming mushy.
- Drain the potatoes well before mashing them. This will prevent them from becoming watery.
- Use a potato ricer or a fork to mash the potatoes. A ricer will give you a smooth and creamy texture, while a fork will give you a more rustic texture.
- Add the sour cream, butter, and seasonings to the potatoes while they are still hot. This will help the flavors meld together.
- Serve the mashed potatoes immediately or keep them warm in a slow cooker until ready to serve.
Conclusion:

The sour cream adds a creamy and tangy flavor to the potatoes, while the butter and seasonings add richness and depth of flavor.
