Ultra-Creamy Irish Champ

Champ is a classic Irish side made with ultra-creamy mashed potatoes and sweet scallions. My version steps it up a notch with the addition of nutty and flavorful Gorgonzola Dolce.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 600 grams potato such as Russet or Yukon Gold
  • 100 grams scallions (6 scallions, sliced)
  • ½ cup milk whole
  • 57 grams butter cultured, unsalted
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 110 grams gorgonzola dolce

Instructions

  1. Scrub the potatoes and then put them in a large pot. Cover the potatoes with a few inches of water. Bring the water to a boil and then turn down the heat to maintain a gentle simmer. Boil the potatoes whole until a skewer easily passes through them. Drain the potatoes, and let them cool enough to handle.
  2. Add the scallions, milk, butter and salt to a small saucepan and bring the mixture to a boil. Turn down the heat and cook the scallions until they are tender, but still green.
  3. Peel the potatoes and pass them through a potato ricer or food mill.
  4. Add the scallion mixture along with the gorgonzola and stir until combined. Be careful not to overmix the Champ or the potatoes will get gummy.
