Pommes Puree

1 hr 5 min
20 min prep
45 min cook

Serves 8

Ingredients

  • 3 lb Yukon gold potatoes, or any heartier potato like fingerling
  • 1 Kuhn Rikon Potato Ricer, use as directed
  • 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
  • 16 oz Unsalted Butter, diced smaller or cut thinly for adding a little at a time
  • 1/4 cup Fresh chives, snipped for garnish

Instructions

  1. Place potatoes into a deep pot and fill with enough cold water to completely submerge them.
  2. Place pot over medium-high heat, cook until potatoes are tender enough to pierce with a knife easily.
  3. Drain potatoes and while still warm peel skins off. Place peeled potatoes into a potato ricer.
  4. Press gently through ricer in order to have a creamy texture with no lumps.
  5. Place pureed potatoes into a pot set over medium heat. Add cream and whip them to allow to absorb.
  6. While stirring potatoes add butter, 3 to 4 tablespoons at a time and continue stirring vigorously. Repeat until all butter is incorporated. Keep stirring so bottom of pan doesn't scorch.
  7. Once all butter and cream have been added, remove potatoes from heat. Season liberally with salt to taste and garnish with snipped chives.
  8. Chef's Note: If potato emulsion begins to break due to amount of fat in potato add a 1/4 cup of water and whip to help re-emulsify. If your arm is tired from stirring when finished you did it right.
