The potatoes were bland. I’ll try it again. The issue could have been the chef.

May I humbly suggest using the Quick “Roasted” Garlic technique from https://planetarianlife.com/. Your excellent recipe and their garlic with the olive oil that comes with it was a potato game changer.
I adjusted for the quantity of oil and added a cut-up shallot to add depth. Thank you for the recipe.

No, because of their starch and water content.

Hi Amanda, We haven’t tried freezing the potatoes, but they reheat well after 2 days in the fridge!

Great recipe! As a chef for 15 years i love you cut down the calories in mash potatoes without losing any of the creamy texture by reusing the starchy cooking water. Great idea!

yes, absolutely! I freeze my garlic all the time. I freeze the individual cloves. They thaw quickly at room temperature. A paste would freeze well too.

How much sour cream did you use, and what was the result? Creamier/more tart? Planning for a holiday meal and was curious! Thanks!

So easy and so delicious. I roasted the garlic the day before so putting it together for the actual meal was simple. I did 2 versions, the recipe exactly and then some with some sour cream added in. Both were fabulous and everyone raved about them. I actually used a stand mixer on low for maybe 30 seconds instead of a ricer/masher. Makes it easy to fold in the oil and potato water (and sour cream in my case), you just don’t want to go too long and lose the chunks of texture. Will make this often now.
