Hi, I was wondering if you could share your favorite methods of making this delicious staple? Looking to upgrade my mashed (don't have a food processor, have a hand potato masher.)
Thanks!
Thanks!

My first tip is to use floury potatoes. Second tip is to use either a ricer or hand masher and never a FP. Third tip is to use hot milk and cream plus a knob of non dairy butter.
Shyvas taught me in 2012 to use floury potatoes! [emoji23] Thank you as always, my friend. This is the source quote!I use the method in the following link :

I've never heard of potatoes in a slow cooker - what a great idea! How long do you usually cook them?
I can't help but feel my use of the Ninja inspired this.I use the method in the following link :

Do you add water to the cooker when making potatoes? I'm fairly new to using my slow cooker.
Agreed on most counts. I do leave the skin on when mashing red potatoes and adding roasted garlic. I also use a hand masher, or if I'm lazy, I might used a mixer, but I like lumps in mine as well.I don't usually pay attention to the type of potato I use. I should. Yukon gold are tasty. I've used baking potatoes and they are my least favorite for mashed potatoes...too light and fluffy. I like mashed potatoes heavy, lumpy and starchy. I peel, boil, then use a masher. I add a little Silk creamer, EB, salt, pepper and nutritional yeast.
I must confess here to ... laziness.
I find instant mashed potatoes OK (vegan ones, of course).
However, as all of those typically do not have much taste, I normally mix in salt and ... mustard.
If that makes me strange, in addition to lazy, so be it...
Best regards,
Andy
