Why You Should Avoid Boiling Mashed Potatoes in Water and What to Do Instead


Traditionally, potatoes for mashed potatoes are boiled in water. However, some culinary experts suggest alternative methods to enhance flavor and texture. 

One such method involves boiling potatoes in milk or chicken stock instead of water. 

This technique allows the potatoes to absorb additional flavors, resulting in a richer and creamier mash. 


Another approach is to steam the potatoes rather than boiling them. 

Steaming requires less water and helps preserve the potatoes' natural flavors, leading to a more flavorful mashed potato without the need for extra cream or butter.
