Instructions

  1. In a large Dutch oven, cover the potatoes with water and bring to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons of salt and simmer until tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. Drain well and let the potatoes stand in a colander for 3 minutes.
  2. Pass the potatoes through a ricer into a large saucepan.
  3. Cook over moderate heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the potatoes are hot and steam begins to rise, about 2 minutes. They will start to stick to the bottom of the Dutch oven.
  4. Add the butter cubes one-fourth at a time, stirring constantly until fully incorporated. Stir in the heavy cream and season generously with salt. Serve immediately.
