    Method

    1. 1

      Put the whole potatoes in a pot of water and simmer for about 25 minutes, until a knife slips in with no resistance.

    2. 2

      Drain, let them cool just enough to handle, and peel off the skins.

    3. 3

      Press the potatoes through a ricer into a warm saucepan.

    4. 4

      Stir over low heat for a minute so excess steam escapes.

    5. 5

      Beat in the butter a few pieces at a time, then add the warmed milk gradually until the purée is soft and silky.

    6. 6

      Season with the salt.
