Ingredients

1 ½ pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
½ cup buttermilk
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground white pepper

Directions

Bring 1 to 2 inches of water to a boil in a large pot fitted with a steamer basket. Add potatoes to the basket. Cover, adjust heat to maintain a simmer, and cook until the potatoes are tender, 30 to 35 minutes.
Remove from heat. Remove the basket and drain the water. Return the potatoes to the pot and stir over low heat until dry, about 2 minutes. Pass the potatoes through a potato ricer into a large bowl. (Alternatively, mash potatoes in the pot with a potato masher.) Add buttermilk, butter, salt and pepper and stir gently to combine. Serve immediately or cover to keep warm.

Equipment

Potato ricer or masher

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
