Mashed Potatoes
I'm embarrased to say I've never made them myself, although I've helped my parents.
Can I make them without using heavy cream? Just milk, butter and season to taste?
Re: Mashed Potatoes
Good. So would I just substitute it and use the same amount that's called for of heavy cream?
Any recipes to share? I'd like garlic mashed...

TTC Since January 2011 - We have bad spermI've never used heavy cream to make mashed potatoes. I've just always used milk and butter. And I've never measured either. I just add them until they look and taste right. lol
Also, I make them in the mixer, so it's easier to tell when you've got the right amounts in.

All of this for me, too. Plus salt and pepper.
I'd bet fat free half and half would make them a little creamier than milk.

This. Except that I usually just use the potato masher, even though I have a Kitchen Aid. I just mash them until they are fluffy, adding milk until it is the consistency I like. I find that while the Kitchen Aid works well, it is easy to overmix and make it gluey. So I end up being about 50/50 on when I use the Kitchen Aid and when I use the masher.

Completely agreed!!!
My dad grows red potatoes in the summer (along with a ton of other vegetables...he just planted everything and I can't wait for some fresh veggies!!!) and I LOVE making mashed potatoes out of them...not to mention roasted potatoes

My mashed potatoes are requested in our family. I always use sour cream instead of milk because I usually add too much milk and they get soupy. Then I add butter, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to taste.
I like to mix in gouda or pesto for a different taste too.
Yay, they were a success.
I used a mix of Russell and red-skin pototoes (had 3 of each), 1/2 stick butter, bit of milk, 2 cloves garlic and some garlic salt. I hand mashed and then used hand mixer a little. They were delicious!
