Marge’s (Twice Cooked) Mashed Potatoes

My mother-in-guidelines, Marge, modified into as soon as from the South and he or she made the most gorgeous mashed potatoes I in fact be pleased ever eaten. She modified into as soon as massive and thin with a thick Southern enlighten and I’ll continuously undergo in mind her standing over the range, blender in hand, beating away at the potatoes, milk and butter after which serving them, scorching and steamy to her family, her eyes stuffed with esteem. Her sons were very lucky to be pleased her.

Right here’s my version of that recipe. Marge has been long previous for a truly long time, nonetheless I mediate of her at any time when I invent these potatoes and I remind my son of the brilliant grandmother that he had, and the esteem with which she intelligent meals for her family. My version is cooked twice, born of necessity, in actuality, dinner occasion – many meals to put together – invent the mashed potatoes sooner than time and throw them within the oven. I’ve also substituted heavy cream for Marge’s milk and added garlic. Baked after whipping, the potatoes manufacture a golden crust and are meltingly gorgeous (you may perhaps well well most most likely also add rather parmesan to the potatoes sooner than baking and that would be correct too…)
