directions

  • In a large pot, bring 4 quarts of water and 2 tablespoons of salt to a boil. Meanwhile, cut the potatoes into 1 1/2-inch cubes and add them to the boiling water.
  • Bring the water to a boil again, lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes fall apart easily when pierced with a fork.
  • Meanwhile, heat the milk and butter in a small saucepan, making sure it doesn't boil.
  • Set aside until the potatoes are done.
  • As soon as the potatoes are tender, drain them in a colander.
  • Place a food mill fitted with a small disc/blade over a heatproof bowl. Process the potatoes through the food mill, turning the handle back and forth.
  • As soon as the potatoes are mashed, stir in the hot milk-and-butter mixture with a whisk or rubber spatula.
  • Add enough buttermilk to make the potatoes creamy.
  • Add 2 teaspoons of salt and the pepper, to taste, and serve hot.
