- Choose the Right Potatoes. Everyone has their own idea of what makes perfect mashed potatoes. Whether you're seeking a creamy or fluffy mash, spuds rich with cream or something as light as air, you can use the tips in this guide to make perfect mashed potatoes no matter which recipe you use.
- Boil the Potatoes Whole. Plenty of recipes and tips will have you peel and cut potatoes into even pieces. A much better option is to buy potatoes that are all about the same size so they will cook evenly.
- Dry the Potatoes. Drain the potatoes, return them to the hot pot, and return the pot to low heat. Cook, uncovered, shaking the pan every few minutes, for 5 to 10 minutes to evaporate as much water from the hot potatoes as you can.
- Peel & Mash the Potatoes. The extent to which it is worth the $15 or so that a ricer costs when it comes to mashed potatoes cannot be stressed enough. A ricer mashes potatoes utterly and completely, without a bump or lump in sight.
- Add Hot Cream, Butter, or Other Flavorings. Heat any cream, milk, butter, or flavorings before you add them to the mashed potatoes. This will keep the potatoes hot and also keep them fluffy.
