Golden Lux Potatoes

Is there anything more sumptuous than well-made mashed potatoes?

Creamy and rich, our Golden Lux Potatoes are the ideal foundation for any type of protein. The trick to making great mashed potatoes is choosing the right variety. Russet potatoes are fluffy, and starchy and make the very best baked potatoes. Red potatoes are waxy and will be sticky if used as mashed potatoes but are great for boiled or potato salad recipes. The very best choice for luscious mashed potatoes is the Yukon Gold and bonus, you don’t have to peel them! The cross between starch and wax in this variety will yield a mashed potato that will absorb enough dairy to be well flavored while remaining very creamy and luxurious. In our Golden Lux Potato recipe, you will brown the butter. This extra step gives the potatoes a warm nutty flavor that is hard to beat. The next time you are hungry for mashed potatoes, try our Golden Lux Potatoes, you’ll be glad you did!

Golden Lux Potatoes

Ingredients
  • 4 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into 1 ½ inch pieces
  • 1 stick butter
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper
Instructions
  • Place the potatoes, covered with water on a burner set to medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons of salt to the water when it comes to a boil and cook until potatoes are tender about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in small chef pan heat butter until it is melted. Continue to cook the butter stirring often, over medium
    heat until it begins to brown. When brown, pour the butter into a waiting dish and set aside until the potatoes are ready.
  • Drain the water from the potatoes and mash them with cream and browned butter.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
