Favorite mashed potatoes? (Mexican, vinegar, vegan, tasty)

Twice-baked.

Bake em. Mash em. Bake em again

Crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside.

Ay ay ay

I like Robuchon-style potatoes. Really more of a potato puree than mashed potatoes.

Those are good...I like to add steamed chopped broccoli to the mash before the second bake.

Nowadays, we've veered away from rich and creamy mash and are very much enjoying using unpeeled Yukon Golds, not mashed to a mush, and with just a little milk and butter. Hubs has always been a bit finicky about adding things to although he doesn't mind a sprinkling of chives.

Or whatever it becomes. Once it's gone too far, it reeks.

The next day I like to take the leftover mashed potatoes, add some partially cooked onions (and leftover cabbage if I have some), and fry them as patties "Bubble and Squeak" style. You can actually add any leftover veggies to the patties.

That's how I like mine the best. Yukons mixed with garden turnips, turned creamy with whole milk and butter with a nice ladle of mushroom gravy. Hmmm earth apple delight!

In my Grandma's kitchen "sour milk" is not soured milk, it was regular milk with a capful of vinegar added.

I know about the vinegar/lemon juice thing. However, I'm talking about milk that has soured...

Vinegar in milk is a useful sub for buttermilk in bread recipes. I've used it in a pinch in making soda bread and buiscuits.
