|
3 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes 1 1/2 cups milk 3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter 3 tablespoons whole grain or coarse grain mustard Directions: In a 5 quart kettle, cover potatoes with cold salted water by 2 inches and simmer until tender, 35 to 45 minutes. While potatoes are simmering, in a small saucepan, heat milk and butter over moderate heat until butter is melted. Remove pan from heat and keep milk mixture warm, covered. In a colander, drain potatoes and cool just until they can be handled. Peel potatoes, transferring to a large bowl. Add mustard, salt and pepper to taste, and three fourths hot milk mixture, and with a potato masher, mash potatoes until smooth, adding more milk mixture if necessary to make them creamy. Makes 6 servings.
