Refined Whimsy

I could include a picture but, you do know what mashed potatoes are, right? Okay just checking, no judgement here. You clicked a mashed potato recipe afterall… and I made one.

Ingredients:

• 2-3 large russet potatoes
• heavy cream
• butter
• salt

No frills here, that’s up to you. Measure with your heart!

STEP 1: prep large pot of water to boil, salt that water like the ocean and move to next step while building up to the boiling point.

STEP 2: wash potatoes thoroughly.

STEP 3: peel potatoes (if that’s your thing) and give an extra rinse.

STEP 4: cut potatoes in halves or quarters.

STEP 5: with water boiling, add in potatoes.

STEP 6: be patient, reflect, call a friend, just wait.

STEP 7: test potatoes for fork tenderness, they should slide right off.

STEP 8: drain water from pot and add in cream + butter.

STEP 9: mash em! fork, hand mixer, dealer’s choice.

STEP 10: add additional cream + butter to your preference

STEP 11: pair with something tasty!
