The method of making mashed potatoes

This is the Charlotte potato, a medium-sized yellow skinned potato with an oval shape and slightly pointed ends. It has a low starch content, and the mashed potatoes made from it do not have a completely starchy texture.

Wash the potatoes, put them in a pot, add a large amount of cold water, boil the water until it boils, continue boiling over medium heat for about 30 minutes, and easily insert bamboo sticks. (Potatoes must be boiled with the skin to prevent moisture; boil potatoes in cold water to allow the temperature to slowly enter the interior and avoid significant differences in cooking degree between the inside and outside.)

Step 2 of the recipe for mashed potatoes (the ultimate version of delicious science)

Peel the potatoes and place them in the finest grinding net to press out delicate mashed potatoes. (Do not use a blender, the mashed potatoes will become a paste and have a poor taste.)

Step 3 of making mashed potatoes (the ultimate version of delicious science)

Put the pressed mashed potatoes into a non stick pan and stir over low heat for 5 minutes. (Evaporate some moisture to make the taste more rich and mellow)

Step 4 of making mashed potatoes (the ultimate version of delicious science)

Boil whole milk over low heat while heating mashed potatoes.

Steps 5 for making mashed potatoes (the ultimate version of delicious science)

Add enough cold butter chunks (leaving nail cover size for later use). A sufficiently cold butter will slow down the melting time, making the butter mix more evenly and the mashed potatoes more sticky.

Steps 6 for making mashed potatoes (the ultimate version of delicious science)

Stir until the butter is completely absorbed by the mashed potatoes.

Steps 7 for making mashed potatoes (the ultimate version of delicious science)

Add extremely hot milk and stir continuously until the milk is completely absorbed by the mashed potatoes. Season with salt and white pepper. (Do not use black pepper powder, it will look like impurities)

Steps 8 for making mashed potatoes (the ultimate version of delicious science)

Put mashed potatoes into a bowl or squeeze them into shape, melt a small piece of butter that was previously reserved, and brush it on the surface of the mashed potatoes. This will form a thin layer that isolates the air, prevent the mashed potatoes from drying out, and enhance the surface aroma.
