Mustard Mashed Potatoes
List of Ingredients
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
Recipe
This recipe was created to accompany Cedar Planked Salmon with
Maple Glaze.
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 with 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. (Potatoes may be made 1 day ahead and cooled
completely before being chilled in a buttered ovenproof dish, covered.
Bring potatoes to room temperature before reheating, covered.)
Serves 6.
