I really enjoy your videos. Keep doing what you’re doing. What sets you apart is your unique and thoughtful (mind full- haha) “Tips” that are spot on! I hope more folks find you soon.
All mashed potatoes are good but this is exceptionally good. For any economizers out there, you can buy a 10 lb bag of potatoes, a small container of sour cream and portion into three batches. Also, if you have a FoodSaver and a sous vide, you can make 12+ servings of mashed potatoes for real convenience and savings. It freezes perfectly. But the best selling point of all is the flavor! These are fantastic!
Had a bag of potatoes that I forgot about. Cooking them right now. The extras I will cool in fridge then vacuum seal and in to the deep freezer for quick sides for another day. We can't waste food these days. Thanks for the recipe!
I have found that the best tools for the fluffiest mashed potatoes are either a ricer or food-mill. I also learned years ago that cold butter should be added before milk to insure even melting. If you melt the butter first the milk solids and fat separate and don’t mix into potatoes evenly.
They look yummy! Question: can you keep these on warm after you make them without them getting gummy or starchy while you're waiting for other items to finish cooking? Or is that not recommended.
Great video just what I needed for my new instant pot. I’ll be doing mash in the pot sausages in the ninja and onion gravy on the stove finished off with garden peas for veg 😋
Hi- just found your videos and subscribed! It’s Thanksgiving day and I made your Mac and cheese for my picky granddaughter and your mashed potatoes! Love your receipes! Thank you! I used my Instant Pot- so easy !👍👏🏻👏🏻
I never really peel potatoes, but when making mashed potatoes I do, but I cut the peel off (Making sure to scrub (wash) them) then chuck them into my food processor and polarize the peel and I add it right to the rest of the potatoes.. I started using my instant about3 years ago (trial & error) making them.. Loved your version too.. Here is another tip that will allow you to add lots of flavor to it also.. I slice my potatoes (after cutting the peel) Then I soak them in salted water (1teaspoon for a gallon of water) for 10 minutes, then rinse them twice, I put 3 parts water and 1 part softened butter in the instant pot, salt an season to your own taste, I like to add 1 large onion roughly cut and 2 garlic cloves crushed, put the pulverized skins in, when done I add half n half.. I use an immersion blender in a few short bursts and hand mix in-between bursts.. It does not matter how much of my mashed potatoes I make, they are devoured.. Thank you for sharing.. Please test my method an see how it works for you.. Also instead of the water during Thanksgiving & Christmas I use (homemade) turkey stock.. Took me a while to figure out that soaking and rinsing is the key to awesomeness (and removing the starch)... Merry Christmas.. OH.. I let mine fulling natural release, takes about 15 to 25 minutes..
I love the idea of soaking the potatoes in salt water. I often do that if I want to get a head start on prepping the potatoes and then leave them in the fridge overnight. And garlic cloves always are a good idea!!! Thanks for sharing.
@@AMindFullMom Thank you.. When cooking big, like holiday cooking, anything that saves time works.. I have three 8 quart Instant Pots and during holiday cooking they all get a workout. I start prepping about a week prior and cook all week before.. Thank you for sharing your ideas.. Have a Merry Christmas, you & your family...
Hello! I love your videos, you re really helping me. Question, I am making your IP short ribs today, doing the potatoes first, how do you suggest keeping mashed potatoes warm or reheating?
Wow, that looks so good. I have 2 very large sweet potatoes. Thats what I'm going to do today. Im going to go through your videos hopefully I'll find something. Hope you are doing well. Continued prayers. Sending love and big hugs Sherry ❤
Thanks so much Sherry! I feel pretty good right now, so feeling blessed. I use my Instant Pot sweet potatoes to make sweet potato casserole. Here is my video for the process ruclips.net/video/jO0mOAKbJBI/видео.html
Do you have the portions for 5 pounds of potatoes? How much water? etc This recipe was delicious when I made 3 pounds...I don't want to mess it up, but I need to use 5 pounds this time.
Love hearing you enjoy these. For 5 pounds , keep the water and cooking time the same. As for additions, add 2 teaspoons kosher salt, 5 tablespoons melted unsalted butter, 3/4 cup milk or cream warmed, and 3/4 cup sour cream.
Hi Kristen: great recipe as usual. Our old Instant Pot just broke today (after much use! I am overwhelmed with all of the choices of Instant Pot. I had no idea. When we bought this one, there was only one choice. Are the more expensive ones worth the extra cost? They sure do look a lot nicer than the one we have. But I wanted to ask your opinion first. Thanks so much Barbara
Barbara- hope this is helpful…I think it would depend on if you would use and/or enjoy the extra features. Or want a fancier digital interface. This is the best time of year to buy one! I’d say get the nicest one at the deepest discount. I personally have the new Ninja Foodi SmartLid appliance that still pressure cooks and air fries, etc and absolutely love it. Good luck!
@@michellefitz4287 Thank you! It's a lot to wade through. But we love our Instant Pot and are definitely looking to upgrade. I haven't even seen the Ninja Foodi. Lol! Now more to consider.
Oh no, Barbara! What a bummer! At least most models will be on sale right now. As for the model you should get, I have 2 I recommend (these are affiliate links), and both are the Duo 7-in-1. The majority of other features in the more expensive models are useless and I find the older molder to cook more evenly. 6-quart (my personal go-to): amzn.to/3Vb8Vyz 8-quart (if you have a large family): amzn.to/3EMQ0Vv

Appreciate that you give reasons for why you do certain steps/products.
Glad you find that helpful.
You saved our thanksgiving and they were the best mashed potatoes we’ve ever made, by far. Thank you!
I am thrilled to hear you enjoyed!

Great as always. I always add fresh thyme, or dry if thats what you have to the butter when melting. Thankyou Kristen!
Great tip! I love thyme myself
This is my go-to mashed potatoes recipe, absolutely delicious and super easy! Thanks for sharing!!!!
You are so welcome!
I love the way mashed potatoes comes out from the IP. They always come out amazing.
So good! Enjoy your Thanksgiving

Thank you so much!
Thank you for a great recipe! I can hardly wait to make them!
Hope you enjoy! Happy early Thanksgiving!
You explained this so well. I feel like I completely understand what to do, rather than preparing to copy steps.
That is what I set out to accomplish! :)
I'm making Minnesota mushroom swiss steak in on pressure cooker and you mashed potatoes in my smaller one tonight great recipe I'm sure I'll succeed
Sounds like a wonderful comforting dinner!
This method is solid. I heated up the sour cream with the milk and butter though. Great results.
Thank you.
Wonderful! Thank you for sharing!

Hahahhahaha
Same. Only way to do it
Thanks for the heads up. 👊🏽

Me too ❤

Hmm, that is a new tip about the butter. Thanks for sharing

Hi Patty! That works well for an hour or so. Happy Thanksgiving

Fabulous! I am making both today as well. Happy Thanksgiving
I like using a mixer on high after mashing the potatoes, butter, milk and seasonings to the whip potatoes into a creamy consistency.
I am glad that works for you, I find it can make mashed potatoes gummy, but if you love them, DO IT :)

Hello! I love your videos, you re really helping me. Question, I am making your IP short ribs today, doing the potatoes first, how do you suggest keeping mashed potatoes warm or reheating?
Hey there! I would place them into a baking dish, cover with foil and keep them in a 200 degree oven. Enjoy!
Thank you! I’m a beginner and you’ve inspired me.
Wonderful!

Did y'all take the chill off the sour cream? Thx
Blessings, julie
No, at that point, the potatoes are well tempered. No need to worry :) Enjoy!
@@AMindFullMom thx
My 6Q pot says to put in at least 1.5 cups for liquid,or does 1 cup work okay?
1 cup works well :)
Why they have to cut in cubes ?
It will help them cook faster and more evenly. Feel free to cook the potatoes whole, but I would recommend cooking for 20 minutes on high pressure.

Stick with what you love. I’ve heard that the Instant Pot Duo is a best seller and probably at a very good price this week. Good luck!

This host is a champion, in my opion.🌞
Well thank you so muhc!
I love the recipe. I like the skin and I heard it’s nutritious so I don’t peel the potatoes.
It is nutritious! So smart choice
Watched in 15secs 🎉
LOL! I sometimes watch myself at 2x speed and wish I was that fast in real life
I add some cream cheese, too!
Yum!
You know your stuff
I have a lot of experience and test every recipe multiple times :)
Good tips but I found the video very long for such an easy recipe. Also why don't you give the quantity needed on your website recipe.
Whose hands are those??
My son helped with this recipe :)
@@AMindFullMom Ahaha I figured as much! A little editing magic. Thank you, this recipe was my first instant pot dish and the saute tip is brilliant!
@@johnnathans4535 Thank you!
👍🏻👍🏻
Süper 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯..
Thank you!
Americans and Kosher salt.... Salt is salt, just in different densities.
Actually, that is not true. Kosher salt vs table salt here in the US are different. Table salt has added iodine
What is special about this? It’s just basic?
The tips make all the difference in the world! No mixer, drying out potatoes, adding warmed butter and milk.
OMG stop all the yapping. & Get on with it.
OMG stop all the yapping. & Get on with it.
You talk way to much
Looks amazing.
Thank you
depending on how much potatoes you add you need more water or else the pot won't have enough water to seal
You IP should seal as long as you use 1 cup of water for a 6-quart and 1.5 for an 8-quart.
