Ingredients
- 2½ pounds Yukon gold potatoes
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 2 ounces Parmesan, grated
- ¾ to 1 teaspoon kosher salt*
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Preparation
- Peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch cubes.
- Put potatoes into a 6-quart stockpot and cover with water by 2 inches.
- Place over medium high heat. Bring water to a boil and allow potatoes to simmer until very tender.
- Drain water well and place potatoes back in stockpot.
- Insert the mixing beaters into the Cuisinart® Hand Mixer.
- Mix the potatoes directly in pot starting on speed 1. Increase speed gradually to speed 4 until potatoes are thoroughly mixed.
- Add butter, buttermilk, Parmesan and salt and pepper to taste. *The tanginess of the buttermilk plays off the salt.
- Add salt in ½ teaspoon additions and taste, adjusting to your liking.
Note: If a more subtle tangy flavor is preferred use ½ cup buttermilk and ½ cup whole milk.
