WORLD'S BEST MASHED POTATOES
I attended a Boy Scout pot luck with my son several years ago and was introduced to these heavenly potatoes. The Scout leader was kind enough to share. It is a recipe that is hard to mess up but yet is delightful enough to serve at a formal dinner party. We seldom have leftovers and when we do my family fights over who gets to eat them. It is an easy recipe to decrease or increase depending on the needs of your family.

Steps:
- Place peeled and cubed potatoes into a medium size saucepan.
- Cover with water,place on stove and cook on medium heat until fork tender, approximately 10 to 15 minutes depending on the size of cubes and type of potato.
- Remove from heat and drain any remaining water.
- Place potatoes into mixing bowl.
- Add butter and start to whip potatoes with mixer set on 7 or 8.
- Add sour cream slowly and whip until smooth and creamy.
- (The amount of sour cream may vary depending on the type of potato used, Yukon gold uses all, some other softer potatoes do not need all of the sour cream.) Pour potatoes into a cassole dish sprayed with cooking spray.
- Top with as much cheese as desired.
- Bake at 350 for approximately 20 minutes or until cheese bubbles and edges start to brown.
- Remove from oven and let sit for five minutes.
- If you are serving a meat that has a gravy, then leave off the cheese but still bake the potatoes until bubbly.

- Whip together the cream cheese and butter in a large bowl with a hand mixer on medium speed until thoroughly blended, about 2 minutes. Add the still-warm potatoes alternating with the half-and-half. Whip until blended. Add in the pepper and garlic and season with salt to taste.

THE BEST MASHED POTATOES
This is our go-to recipe for classic mashed potatoes, made with plenty of butter and cream. To make them fluffy and flavorful, be sure to simmer them slowly and add plenty of salt to the cooking water. And don't skip the step of steaming the excess water off; leaving too much moisture in the potatoes causes them to be loose and gluey.

Steps:

- Drain the potatoes well and return them to the pot. Place the pot over low heat and let any residual water steam off, about 2 minutes. Mash the potatoes well with a potato masher. Fold in the butter with a spatula until melted, and then fold in the cream. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:
- In a large stock pot fill with water and bring to a boil.
- While you are waiting for the water to boil, skin and quarter potatoes (depends on size) Put taters in the boiling water until mildly tender (time depends on lots of time and has never been the same, but start looking at them after 30 min) Use a potato ricer*** (works lots better and is the key of the recipe) or masher to compress the potatoes into a large serving bowl.
- Add the butter, pepper and season salt.
- Use a whisk or hand mixer to blend ingredients and make taters smooth.
- Add cream to the point, while stirring, that the taters have a great consistency.
- You can add more pepper, garlic, salt to taste if wanted.
- I sometimes bake the potatoes about 20 minutes in the oven at 300°F after the fact to blend the flavor beautifully.

Steps:
- Tip the potatoes into a large pan, cover with cold water and sprinkle with a generous pinch of salt. Set the pan over a high heat and bring to the boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 15-20 mins until the potatoes are very tender - they should be able to be easily pierced with the tip of a knife. Drain well, then return to the pan and leave to steam-dry for 5 mins.
- Pass the potatoes through a ricer into a large bowl for a lump-free mash (you may need to do this in batches). Alternatively, mash with a potato masher until smooth, then press through a sieve using the back of a spoon to get rid of any remaining lumps.
- Tip the 50g Yeo Valley Organic salted butter, the milk and some seasoning into the bowl with the hot mash. Beat everything together with a wooden spoon or spatula until the butter has melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add a splash more milk to loosen, if needed. Top with the remaining 1 tbsp butter and leave it to melt for a few seconds before serving.
