PERFECT SMASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Put 1 3/4 pounds baby potatoes in a pot and cover with water. Add 2 bay leaves, 2 garlic cloves and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain, discarding the bay leaves and garlic. Toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, transfer to a baking sheet and smash with a spatula or measuring cup. Drizzle with more olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil, turning, until crisp and golden, 15 to 20 minutes.

CREAMY AND DECADENT MASHED POTATOES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Add the potatoes, bay leaves, garlic, rosemary, and thyme to a large pot. Pour in the cream and milk, bring to a simmer over medium heat, and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 20 minutes.
• Drain the potatoes, reserving the cooking liquid, and discard the herbs and garlic. Press the potatoes through a potato ricer into a large bowl.
• Add about 1½ cups of the reserved cooking liquid to the potatoes and stir until creamy. Add the butter, salt, and pepper, and stir to incorporate.
• Garnish with thyme leaves, if desired.
• Note: You can save any extra cooking liquid and use it to rehydrate leftover mashed potatoes the next day.
• Enjoy!

DECADENT MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place cut potatoes in a 6-quart saucepan and cover with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon sea salt, cover and bring to a simmer. Cook for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over low heat, melt butter with cream, 1 tablespoon sea salt, and a pinch of white pepper.
• When potatoes are cooked thoroughly (remove a piece and taste to ensure tenderness), drain in a colander. While still hot, pass potatoes through a food mill with a medium sieve attachment, or through a potato ricer, and put back into the pot in which they were cooked.
• Slowly pour the warm butter-cream mixture into the potatoes; incorporate gently with a wooden spoon. Taste and adjust seasoning. Garnish with fresh chives or basil. Serve immediately.

DEVILED POTATOES

Steps:

• Try deviled eggs in a new way: Pipe the filling onto potatoes! Mash the yolks of 12 hard-boiled eggs with 1/2 cup mayonnaise and 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard; season with salt and pepper (save the egg whites for an egg salad). Boil 12 baby potatoes in salted water until tender; halve lengthwise. Pipe the yolk mixture on top of the potatoes and sprinkle with paprika and chives.
