Mom s Mashed Potatoes Preparation
These were never measured ingredients, so I will only list what goes into the mashed potatoes and you can add to your taste. Peel and cut the potatoes in large chunks. Cover with cold water; heat to boiling over medium heat, turn heat to low and cover pot. Simmer for 20-25 minutes or until potatoes are soft when tested with a fork. Drain potatoes and pour into a large mixing bowl. Immediately add butter, salt and pepper. Beat with an electric mixer until smooth. (We always used the mixer – if you prefer chunkier style potatoes, you can substitute a potato masher.) While mixing potatoes, pour cream or half & half into the pan in which you cooked the potatoes. Heat to simmering. Pour a bit at a time over the potatoes, beating well after each addition, until the mashed potatoes are the preferred consistency. Check for seasonings; spoon into serving dish. Serve immediately. If you are adding sour cream, cream cheese and chives, beat these into the potatoes before adding the heated milk.
