Instructions
- Add potatoes and 2 teaspoons of salt in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, reduce heat to medium and simmer until the potatoes are fork tender, about 20 minutes.
- Melt butter in medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until butter has a nutty aroma, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat. Measure out 2 Tablespoons of browned butter and set aside. See below for more detailed instructions on browning butter.
- Carefully whisk in milk to gently warm the milk. Be careful as the mixture may bubble.
- Drain potatoes. Return to the saucepan and either use a ricer (for smoother potatoes) or a potato mashed (for more chunky potatoes) to mash the potatoes. Mash until smooth and no lumps remain.
- Whisk browned-butter mixture into potatoes until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl. Drizzle with the remaining 2 Tablespoons of browned butter.
Notes
- How to store and reheat mashed potatoes:
- If you have leftovers, here’s how to store and reheat them while keeping them creamy:
- Storing: Place mashed potatoes in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3-4 days.
- Reheating: Gently reheat in a saucepan over medium-low heat, adding a splash of milk or cream and stirring frequently. You can also reheat them in the microwave in short intervals, stirring in between.
