List of Ingredients
3 lbs. potatoes, peeled or 3 lbs. red potatoes, unpeeled, your
choice
1 1/2 c. half and half or milk
1/4 lb. unsalted butter
1/2 c. sour cream
1/2 c. Parmesan cheese, freshly grated
1 T. salt, for boiling water,plus
2 tsp. salt
fresh ground pepper, to taste
Recipe
Place potatoes in stock pot with 1 T. salt, and enough cold water to
cover.
Bring to a boil, and simmer potatoes for 25-30 mins., or until
tender. Drain, and return to pot.
Heat half and half and butter in a small sauce pan, until butter is
melted.
Add warm mixture to potatoes, and mash with potato masher until
smooth, but not perfectly smooth, unless you like them that way.
(Remember the longer you mash your potatoes the more gluten they will
have, and the stickier they will get)!
Fold in sour cream, Parmesan, and mix well.
Add salt and pepper, to taste.
If the potatoes seem thick, you may add a bit more cream and/or
butter, until the texture suits your taste.
