🔥 Step by Step: How to Make the Smoothest Mashed Potatoes
1. Cook the Potatoes Thoroughly
Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized cubes so they cook evenly. 🧼 Place them in salted water and boil until very soft (about 20 minutes). 🕐
2. Remove Excess Moisture
Drain the potatoes and return them to the hot pot for 1 minute without water, stirring to evaporate the excess liquid. 🔥 This trick improves the final texture.
3. Mash with Technique
Use a potato masher or hand masher. Don’t use a blender or food processor!
