Mashed potatoes should be a fairly simple dish to make but I have ordered mashed potatoes countless times and received something that looked more like canned or watered potatoes. So I thought it would be appropriate to post a good recipe for creamy mashed potatoes.

How to make creamy mashed potatoes

In addition we received countless emails requesting that we publish a recipe for creamy mashed potatoes.

Real mashed potatoes are something most of us remember from our childhood: a rich creamy buttery flavor whipped into something surprisingly light and fluffy in texture.

I think the reason it reminds us of our childhood is that most of us (the Western world anyway) have run for the hills since adolescence away from exactly such things as butter and cream and I think that is completely unfair. Even more disturbingly we now seem to be running away from potatoes and starches too.
