EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

If you make the potatoes ahead of time, keep them warm by setting the saucepan over a double boiler or larger pan of simmering water, or place the potatoes in a slow cooker on low heat setting for 2 to 3 hours.

You can easily double this recipe to feed a larger group. Just be certain you have a large Dutch oven to allow for boiling 3 pounds of potatoes.

Sprinkle toasted chopped walnuts or chopped fresh chives over smashed potatoes before serving. See page 45 for toasting directions.

I made this last night and my husband LOVED it! I did too actually. The first thing he said after he had taken a few bites was, "Oh you have to make this again very soon!" We actually paired this with the Pork Chops and Apples. I added more pepper than was called for in the recipe to give a bit more of a kick and it turned out very well. I will definitely be making this one again!
