CREAMY MAKE-AHEAD MASHED POTATOES



Creamy Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes image

Mashed potatoes can be made almost completely ahead. Do nearly everything - boil, peel and mash; stir in milk and salt - up to two days ahead. Before serving, reheat. Adding butter at the last minute makes them taste freshly mashed.

Do these ahead and save time! I will not eat mashed potatoes that are leftover but my sister said I would like these. I love them!!! You can not tell they were made the day before. What a time saver when you are having a big dinner. They can even be done 2 days before. You will make these again and again! 40 minutes prep time is also boiling time for the potatoes.

MAKE-AHEAD MASHED POTATOES



Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes image

These creamy mashed potatoes can be made in advance and then stored in the refrigerator or freezer until you are ready to serve them. Slowly heating them in the oven is the perfect way to maintain the fluffiness of the potatoes without making them gluey, which can happen if you heat them to fast and too hot (we're looking at you, microwave).

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h

Yield About 9 cups

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 pounds russet potatoes (about 6 large potatoes)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1 1/4 cups heavy cream or half-and-half (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • Lightly scrub the potatoes. Put them in a large stockpot, fill with cold water to cover by about 2 inches and season generously with salt. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to maintain a strong simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork-tender in the center, 50 to 55 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes in a colander in the sink. Let cool enough so that you can handle them, about 10 minutes. It is important that the potatoes do not cool too much because they will mash more easily when hot.
  • Meanwhile, add the butter to the same pot that you used to cook the potatoes (no need to clean it). Melt completely over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat.
  • Heat 3/4 cup of the cream in a microwave-safe measuring cup or bowl until steaming and set aside.
  • Holding the potatoes in a clean kitchen towel, gently peel the skins off with a paring knife. Quarter the potatoes and put them in the pot along with 2 1/2 teaspoons salt. Use a potato masher to mash the potatoes until smooth and fluffy (see Cook's Note).
  • Add the cream and stir until combined. Season with pepper and additional salt if needed. Allow to cool to room temperature, then transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 2 days or freeze up to 3 months.
  • To reheat refrigerated mashed potatoes: Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spoon the mashed potatoes into a 13-by-9-inch baking dish. Drizzle with the remaining 1/2 cup cream. Stir until combined, making sure there are no pools of cream at bottom of the baking dish.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and gently stir the mashed potatoes. Cover again and continue to bake until the potatoes are hot and steamy, 20 to 25 minutes more. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
  • To reheat frozen mashed potatoes: Thaw the potatoes completely in the refrigerator and cook according to the same directions as refrigerated potatoes but do not add cream. The potatoes might seem watery at first but will thicken as they heat up.
  • Transfer the hot mashed potatoes to a large bowl for serving.

CREAMY MASHED POTATOES

Provided by Ree Drummond Bio & Top Recipes

Time 55m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 pounds Yukon gold or russet potatoes
1 1/2 sticks softened butter, plus more for baking
1 1/2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup half-and-half
1/2 cup cream
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Milk, if needed, for thinning

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Peel the potatoes and rinse them in cold water. Chop the potatoes in fourths. Place the potatoes into a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Drain the potatoes, and then return them to the pan. With the burner on low heat, mash the potatoes with a potato masher; the more steam that's released while you mash, the better. Mash for about 5 minutes. Turn off the burner.
  • Add the butter, cream cheese, half-and-half, and seasonings. Stir to combine, and if the mixture needs thinning, add milk. Check the seasonings, adding salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Pour the mashed potatoes into a large casserole pan. Dot the surface with butter. Cover with foil and bake in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for 10 more minutes. Serve immediately.

CREAMY MAKE-AHEAD MASHED POTATOES



Creamy Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes image

Perfect for the busy holidays, these ultra-creamy make-ahead mashed potatoes can be prepared two days ahead of time and reheated in the microwave.

Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Vegetables & Sides

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

3½ pounds Russet potatoes
2 cups heavy cream
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1½ teaspoons salt
Chives, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F and adjust an oven rack to the middle position.
  • Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack (alternatively, you can place them on a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet). Bake until very soft, 50 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the potatoes. (Err on the side of overcooking rather than undercooking them.)
  • Remove the potatoes from the oven. While they are still hot, cut each potato in half lengthwise. Using an oven mitt or a folded kitchen towel to hold the hot potatoes, scoop out all of the flesh from each potato half into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (*see note below on using a potato ricer, food mill or hand-held electric mixer). The flesh near the skin gets a little tough, so be sure to leave it behind. Break the cooked potato flesh down into small pieces using a potato masher, fork, or rubber spatula. Beat on low speed until completely smooth and no lumps remain, 1 to 2 minutes, stopping the mixer to scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. (Note: it's important to mash the potatoes while they are still hot, otherwise you'll end up with lumps.)
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the cream and 6 tablespoons of the butter to a simmer.
  • Remove the bowl from the mixer stand and, using a large rubber spatula, gradually fold in the hot cream and butter mixture. It will take a few minutes to mix it all in; keep folding until the potatoes are smooth and creamy. Stir in the salt, then taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Transfer the mashed potatoes to a large microwave-safe bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap (the bowl should be large enough that the potatoes don't touch the plastic wrap). Refrigerate for up to 2 days. (DO NOT FREEZE)
  • To reheat, use the tip of a knife to poke about 10 holes in the plastic wrap, and microwave at medium-high (75 percent) power until the potatoes are hot, about 14 minutes, stirring halfway through the reheating time. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Transfer the mashed potatoes to a serving dish, top with the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, and sprinkle with the chives. Serve hot.
  • Notes: For perfectly smooth potatoes, pass the potato flesh through a potato ricer or food mill before adding them to the mixer. If you don't have a stand mixer, you can use a hand-held electric mixer. If you don't have an electric mixer, pass the potatoes through a food mill or potato ricer and then whip by hand with a wooden spoon.

THE BEST MAKE-AHEAD MASHED POTATOES



The Best Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes image

From America's Test Kitchen cookbook titled The Best Make-Ahead Recipe. This is what mashed potatoes are supposed to taste like. Roasting the pototoes instead of boiling adds to the rich potato flavor and folding in the cream and butter at the end prevents them from becoming gluey. The mashed potatoes can be made up to 2 days in advance and I love that they heat in the microwave instead of the oven for serving . . . also I love that I didn't have to peel, cube, and boil a single potato! Great for when your oven is tied up with other dishes. I made this for Easter dinner and it fed 8 adults and 2 children and the bowl was scraped clean.

Categories     Low Protein

Time 1h10m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 lbs russet potatoes, scrubbed and poked several times with a fork
3 cups heavy cream, hot
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 teaspoons salt, add more to taste
black pepper, to taste (optional)

Steps:

  • Adjust an oven rack to the middle position and preheat to 450 degrees.
  • Microwave the potatoes on high for 16 minutes, turning them over once.
  • Transfer potatoes to oven and place directly on the oven rack. Bake about 30 minutes, turning once, or until a skewer glides easily through the flesh.
  • Remove from from oven and cut each potato in half lengthwise.
  • Using an oven mitt or folded kitchen towel to hold the hot potatoes, scrape out the flesh into a large microwave-safe bowl.
  • Use a fork, masher, or spatula, break the potato flesh into small pieces.
  • Transfer half of the potatoes to a mixer bowl and beat on high speed with the paddle attachment until smooth, about 30 seconds. (I used a hand mixer with the standard beaters and it worked fine but definitely use a stand mixer if you have it.)
  • Gradually add the rest of the potatoes to incorporate until no lumps remain, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Remove bowl from mixer and gently fold in 2 cups of the cream followed by the butter and 2 tsp of salt. (This will look way too wet at first but keep folding and it will all come together without being soupy).
  • Fold in up to 1/2 cup more cream as needed to reach desired consistency.
  • Once desired consistency is reached, fold in an additional 1/2 cup cream. The potatoes will be quite loose at this point but this is neccesary to prevent them drying out overnight. You may skip adding the additional cream if you want to serve the potatoes immediately.
  • Add any additional seasonings you desire (I like adding parmesan and roasted garlic).
  • TO STORE: Transfer the potatoes back to the large microwave-safe bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for up to 2 days.
  • TO SERVE: Poke lots of holes in the plastic wrap and microwave at 75% power until the potatoes are hot, about 14 minutes, stirring gently halfway through.

FOOLPROOF MAKE-AHEAD MASHED POTATOES



Foolproof Make-Ahead Mashed Potatoes image

A super easy, delightfully creamy make-ahead mashed potato recipe. I used it for my first Thanksgiving. I made it the day before and just popped it in the oven on Thanksgiving day - it definitely alleviated some stress that day. I got this from the St. Louis Today website. Also, a lot of make-ahead mashed potatoes recipes require sour cream or cream cheese. My family doesn't particularly like those flavors, so this was a great alternative.

Provided by cappycha

Categories     Mashed Potatoes

Time 1h40m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 teaspoons sea salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar
4 -5 medium yukon gold potatoes or 4 -5 medium idaho russet potatoes, peeled if desired and sliced 1/3 inch thick
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/2-1 cup half-and-half or 1/2-1 cup milk

Steps:

  • Combine enough water to cover the potatoes (about 6 cups) with 2 teaspoons salt and vinegar in a large pot. Bring to a simmer over high heat, then reduce the heat and add the potato slices. Cook just below a simmer for 30 to 35 minutes, until potatoes are tender when a fork is pressed into a slice. Drain and run cold water over the potato slices to cool them. Let them stand in water in the pot and add some ice. (You want to make sure that the potatoes are cool through before you mash them. This will help prevent gluey potatoes.).
  • Drain well. Mash with an old-fashioned potato masher or large fork or run them through a ricer (don't use the food processor). When you have mashed fairly well, slowly stir in the cream. Stir the remaining 2 teaspoons salt and the pepper into the half-and-half, then stir into the potatoes until they are a little moister than you want the final dish to be. Taste; if necessary, add salt and pepper.
  • Spoon potatoes into a large casserole (about 2 quarts) and cover with foil. Refrigerate overnight or hold at room temperature for up to 2 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Heat potatoes in the covered casserole for 40 minutes, then uncover and serve. Potatoes will stay hot for the entire meal.

These are the BEST mashed potatoes EVER! And they are so user-friendly because you can make them the night before. I never take these anywhere without people begging me for the recipe. Once you make these, you will never want to make them any other way. Also great in twice-baked potatoes. And, if you need really easy, buy pre-cooked mashed potatoes, add from these ingredients, stir, and re-heat in microwave. Tastes almost as good as home-made! My favorite way to cook these are in the crockpot! EDIT: Please note that I have always cooked these in the crockpot and have never baked them; I have gotten new feedback that they taste FAR BETTER if cooked in the crockpot, so this is now my only recommendation for cooking source.
