Servings: 8
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, medium sized -- or use red potatoes
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
3/4 cup butter -- or to taste
1/2 cup sour cream
kosher salt and freshly ground pepper -- to taste
3 each green onions -- chopped
Wash the potatoes well (leave them whole) and place in a 4 qt. sauce pot or dutch oven and cover by one inch with cold water. Add the 2 tablespoons kosher salt and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer for about 40 minutes or until the potatoes are easily pierced through with a paring knife. The time will depend on the size of the potatoes. If you need to, turn off the heat and cover the pan and the potatoes will wait for you for up to 1 hour.
Drain the potatoes and return to the pan. Mash along with the buttermilk and butter to your preferred consistency. Or you may place in a stand mixer with a flat paddle and mix on low to mash.
Stir in the sour cream and salt and pepper to taste. Remove to a warm serving bowl and sprinkle with the chopped green onion. Enjoy!
