It’s true. Mashed potatoes are probably the quintessential Sunday lunch staple - everyone knows how to make them. Mashed potatoes are supposed to be simple - cut some potatoes, boil them, mash them and season them. But is there a better way? In this video, I tackle some of KZfaq’s most popular mashed potato recipes to see if there’s actually a discernible difference in flavour and enjoyment, based on ingredients and technique. We’ll be cooking and reviewing mashed potato recipes from Binging with Babish, All Recipe, Preppy Kitchen and Adam Ragusea. All come with slightly different techniques and combinations of ingredients, so it’ll be interesting to see who comes out on top! We’ll hopefully answer questions like: how potatoey can mashed potatoes really taste? What factors affect the creaminess of mashed potatoes? Is all this work to make a better, mashed potato worth it? Let’s find out!

Babish usually finds the best way, but Preppy offers quick and easy to the deliciousness. Let's find out...

Hrmm, most pre-sliced cheese is usually treated with an anti-caking agent and I wonder if that negatively impacted Babish's results. Also, I imagine that Ragusea's recipe would work a great if you have an immersion blender, it would also save some stove top/oven space as well. I might try this for a holiday or pot luck. What did you end up doing with the extra potatoes? Potato croquettes, anyone?

Another youtuber is Joshua Weissman. He just released a cookbook called Texture over Taste. Something you might want to explore.

When I first served my nieces some mashed potatoes I had made once they came to visit, I heard them laughing has they were eating. When I asked them what was funny, they said that my mashed potatoes were really good because they were not chunky! I guess mashed potatoes are not my sister-in-law's specialty. 😉 I usually make mine with just some butter and a bit of milk, salt and a bit more pepper than most people add to it. When I have leftover cream, I will add it to the potatoes to make them a bit richer.

And the winner is...? Just watch the video to find out. Thanks for jumping through all those hoops. I think the rice John uses is just a hand-held version which produces the same results without having to ladle the potatoes into a traditional ricer - it may take a bit longer, but the end result is the same. Enjoy all those mashed potatoes - now all you need are a few steaks.

Halfway through the video and the suspense is killing me...
