  • Turns out making mash potato is better when you bake the potatoes for an hour and then put them through a sieve

    Time consuming, but ultimately, a gamechanger.

  • Interesting,
    I’ve generally boiled the potatoes, then added loads of butter, then smashed with a large balloon whisk, then beat the fcuk out of it, seasoned it. then transferred to a ceramic dish, covered with heap of grated Gruyère cheese, oven baked for twenty minutes..

  • This is great, but I think you get a lot of the effect using a mouli/sieve instead of the old masher, while still just boiling. For a little extra effort you can boil with the skins on and peel when hot, they don't take on as much water.
