INGREDIENTS
3 lb. mixed potatoes, including Yukon Golds and russets
Black pepper freshly ground
1/2 c. sour cream
1/2 12 c. (1 stick) butter and 2 tablespoons of it to garnish
1/2 1. whole milk
Salt Kosher
Steps
Make sure you have a large pot and then cover the potatoes in a heaping of water. Then add some salt. Bring the water to a boil and then cook until the potatoes become soft and tender, typically approximately 18 minutes.
Once the cooking is done, drain it and place the potatoes back into the pot again Then, take a potato masher and smash the potatoes until they’re perfect and smooth.
After that then melt the butter and the milk inside a pan after which, once it’s heated, remove it and stir it together.
It is then poured on top of your potatoes until it is whipped, then add additional sour cream until everything is properly blended.
Add some salt and pepper until it’s the way you’d like it to.
Place this into an ice-cold bowl for serving by topping it with the last few tablespoons of butter and then add more salt according to your preference before serving it!
