Pomme Purée Recipe

Preparation Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Potatoes

   Peel the Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into uniform chunks. Place them in a large pot of cold, salted water.

2. 2

   Boil the Potatoes

   Bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

3. 3

   Drain and Steam

   Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Allow them to steam for a few minutes to remove excess moisture.

4. 4

   Mash the Potatoes

   Using a potato masher or ricer, mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy.

5. 5

   Add Butter and Cream

   In a small saucepan, gently heat the heavy cream and unsalted butter until the butter is melted. Gradually incorporate this mixture into the mashed potatoes, stirring until fully combined and creamy.

6. 6

   Season and Garnish

   Stir in the chopped fresh chives, salt, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
