Equipment

  • large pot
  • colander
  • potato ricer
  • potato masher
  • wooden spoon
  • rubber spatula
  • measuring cups
  • measuring spoons
  • knife
  • cutting board

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds russet potatoes peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1/2 cup whole milk warmed
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper freshly ground

Instructions
 

  • Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
  • Once boiling, reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are very tender and easily pierced with a fork.
  • Drain the potatoes thoroughly in a colander and return them to the warm pot. Let them sit for 1-2 minutes to allow excess moisture to evaporate.
  • Pass the hot potatoes through a potato ricer or food mill back into the pot for the smoothest texture. Alternatively, mash them in the pot with a potato masher until no large lumps remain.
  • Add the warm milk, softened butter, salt, and pepper to the potatoes. Stir gently with a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until the ingredients are fully incorporated and the mashed potatoes are smooth and fluffy. Avoid overmixing.

Notes

Add mozzarella or feta for a cheesy twist. Let dough rise in a warm oven (off) for faster proofing.
