Velvet Mashed Potatoes
Report
Velvet mashed potatoes are no mere mash. The creamy potato purée owes its uber smoothness to luxurious amounts of butter and heavy cream and an easy, fail-proof technique that relies on a potato ricer.

Ingredients
- 3 large Yukon gold potatoes peeled and quartered
- kosher salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
- freshly ground black pepper
- extra-virgin olive oil (optional)
Instructions
- Place the potatoes in a medium saucepan and add enough cold water to cover. Add 1 teaspoon salt, bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer until the potatoes are very tender when pierced with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes.
- While the potatoes cook, in a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the cream with the butter until the butter melts. Remove from the heat.
- Drain the potatoes and pass them through a potato ricer into a large bowl. Stir in the warm cream and butter, mixing just until the liquid is absorbed and the mixture is smooth. Season with salt and pepper and stir in a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
