Ingredients
- 2 lbs potatoes Note 1
- 2 prigs fresh rosemary
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 1 cup whole milk or half and half
- a few gratings of nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons butter at room temperature, Note 2
- 3 tablespoons cream cheese soft, Note 3
- Fine sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the potatoes: Peel, wash and cut the potatoes into evenly-sized cubes. Place them in a pot, cover them with cold water, bring to a boil, add salt, and cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes until they’re fork-tender. Drain them, return them to the pot, and let them steam for about 2 minutes.2 lbs potatoes
- Rosemary infusion: While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the rosemary and garlic milk. Chop the rosemary leaves very finely and grate the garlic cloves.2 sprigs fresh rosemary + 2 large garlic cloves
- Heat the milk in a small saucepan. Turn off the heat and add rosemary and garlic. Let the mixture steep until the potatoes are ready. The longer you leave them steep, the stronger the flavor. If you prefer, you can strain the liquid before adding it to the mash, but I never do; I love the bursts or rosemary flavor.1 cup whole milk
- Mash the potatoes until they reach the creamy and smooth consistency you prefer. Don’t overdo it, or the mash will turn gluey.
- Pour the infused milk over the potatoes, and add butter and cream cheese or sour cream. Stir to combine, and add nutmeg, salt, and pepper to taste.2 tablespoons butter + 3 tablespoons cream cheese + a few gratings of nutmeg + fine sea salt and ground black pepper
Notes
- Potatoes: Yukon Gold or Russet (Idaho) potatoes. These varieties work well for making creamy mashed potatoes.
- Butter: Salted or unsalted; adjust the salt accordingly.
- Sour cream instead of cream cheese also works.
