Mashed Potatoes

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and cut the Russet potatoes into uniform chunks. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt.

  2. 2

    Boil the Potatoes

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

  3. 3

    Drain and Mash

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the buttermilk, butter, salt, and black pepper. Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy.

  4. 4

    Add Chives

    Fold in the chopped chives into the mashed potatoes. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
