If you’re mashing potatoes, you may as well load ’em up for extra ﬂavor! The great thing about a potato is that it’s a canvas for all of your favorite toppings. The trick to fabulous mashed potatoes is to start them in cold water. Putting potatoes in already boiling water will cause them to cook unevenly. Heating them slowly will give you that creamy texture everyone loves.
