Ingredients
- 6 medium-sized potatoes
- 4 leaves fresh sage
- 1 prig fresh Rosemary
- 1 cup milk
- ¼ cup butter
- 1 tbsp coarse salt
- ½ tsp salt for the milk
- nutmeg
- pepper
Instructions
- Wash and peel the potatoes.
- Put the potatoes in a large saucepan, and cover with 1-inch cold water. Add the salt and bring to boil over high heat.
- Lower heat and simmer potatoes for 20 or 30 minutes.
- In the meantime, heat the milk with 1/2 tsp of salt, pepper, nutmeg, sage, and rosemary.
- When the milk begins to boil, turn off the heat (the milk should not boil).
- Use a fine-mesh strainer to remove all residue from the milk.
- When the potatoes are soft and begin to crumble, drain them and put them through a medium sieve, a potato ricer, or a masher.
- On very low heat, add butter to the potatoes. Add the milk and stir with a wooden spoon to incorporate the milk into the potatoes.
- You will get a very smooth and very uniform cream.
- Adjust the salt and pepper if the mashed potato is too sweet. Serve hot and enjoy!
