Pressure Cooker Mashed Potatoes Recipes

After years of adjusting, learning from failures, and sorting through advice from others that turned out to be good or bad, I finally have a great recipe that people flip over. The two biggest tips I've learned in making these is to heat the milk and butter before mashing in, and to use a hand masher as opposed to an electric mixer. Using these methods, I have NEVER had the potatoes come out pasty or soupy, always super-fluffy with just enough body.

These super creamy mashed potatoes could not be any easier--no dicing and no draining. This is a great make-ahead recipe any time of the year, but especially around the holidays, when you're trying to juggle multiple dishes. Make the potatoes earlier in the day, then just set them on the warm setting so they are nice and hot when you're ready to sit down.

Entered for safe-keeping, from Kuhn Rikon's "Quick Cuisine. If you want a more robust garlic flavor, roast one head of garlic, drizzled with olive oil and wrapped with foil, in a 350-degree-F oven for 45 minutes. Use a potato ricer, food mill or potato masher, or even a fork to mash, but do not use a food processor, as the potatoes will become "gluey". The smallest size pressure cooker K-R recommends for this recipe is 4-quarts. The benefit of the p.c. is getting steamed potatoes, keeping more of the nutrients than if you boiled or microwaved the potatoes. Of course, you can gussy up these mashed potatoes to your heart's content. Yukon Gold, or other waxy potatoes recommended for boiling, do not absorb as much water and result in a more flavorful end product, but can be difficult to obtain a really smooth texture without turning them to glue (but they're great for "lumpy" mashed potatoes). Idaho and russet potatoes have a mealier texture that lends to a smoother texture, if that is desired. (It's a waste of money to use new potatoes for this recipe.) This recipe was developed for a 15 psi p.c. As always, check your p.c. manual for its suggested cooking time. Do not use a quick release method for potatoes.
