Fluffy, creamy, infused with butter, this Mashed Potatoes recipe is so Thanksgiving and Christmas worthy! To make the best mashed potatoes you’ll only need 4 ingredients: potatoes, warm milk, butter and salt! Sometimes, simple will go a long way. You can garnish with some chopped fresh herbs: parsley, chives or even dill!. I could add dill in any savory dish. Add a platter of this Onion and Apple Stuffing, and you’re set for Thanksgiving.
The secret of this recipe is to boil the potatoes whole in their skin, so they will absorb less water, preserving the starch within the potato and to use warm milk, not cold from the fridge. You can make this recipe earlier in the day and keep mashed potatoes warm in a slow-cooker or in a warm oven, on low heat until ready to serve.
