One little pat of butter!? That many potaotes deserve a whole stick, a pinch of pepper, and aprox 1/4 cup of whole milk. The salt during boiling is all the salt they require. Let the milk, and butter get to room temp as the potatoes are cooking. People rave over my mashed potatoes that I learned to make from my southern born and raised mother. They comment on how buttery and creamy they are.

Do you put the potato in cold water first??

@b0z0_truther40

I must’ve done something wrong I tried this recipe and my mashed potato’s are straight booty. First time trying hopefully I can get better

@MACandCHEEKZ

I’m here because I’m newbie in cooking 😅thanks for sharing

@Angara16

i'm not big on salt but i do love pepper in my mashed potatoes. black and white pepper are both good. mixes well with the butter, helps stir it well in and now every bite will be buttery, peppery mash. mmmm

@stuartd6359

Thank you!!! Too many over-complicated recipes and fast edited shorts on YouTube.

Terrific video with terrific tips about starch and how to avoid the mess from it. If she was forty years older and not have the body of a twelve year old girl, I would marry her.

@mickknox1889

Can we use half & half cream instead of milk?

Do it all in the same pan saves time less work saves water, work smart not harder use less 👍

Finally a simple recipe! idk why all the other YouTubers like to complicate this simple dish and use expensive tools or just unnecessary added ingredients, oh and drag out the video wayyyyy longer than it needs to be 😂 thank you!!!

@punjabipunjab6338

Can u use sweet potato,pls is the milk skimmed milk or evaporated milk

@bernicesackey4333

Great recipe! In my experience, 20 mins is a little too long, 15 mins is enough…at 20 mins they are just a tad too watery for my tastes. But other than that, I always follow this recipe exactly!! 😊

@dab7271

I'm going to make this right now. I'll tell you how it goes lol
