How do I make lump free mash?
Butter and milk is making it creamier, but there is still the occasional lump.

Pass it through a tamis or strainer

is this a serious question?
you just mash it until it doesn't have lumps, it's not rocket science.
1. mash for 15-30s
2. add butter
3. mix
4. add whatever else you want
done

Invest in a potato ricer. Hand-mashing is too inconsistent.
I like lumps in my mashed potatoes just like I like lumps in my farina. Little chunks of greatness waiting to be chomped on.

This.
If you want it silky smooth, press it through a fine mesh strainer afterwards.

I use an electric mixer
First I add butter, milk, salt, pepper
(you can use whatever to your liking)
You can get crazy with parmesan or romano cheese.
Use a hand held masher for a bit and then I move onto the electric mixer.
works great
>who the fuck has a potato ricer
Cooking the potatoes for longer, as simple as it sounds, works for me. And go for fluffy rather than waxy potatoes.

Same here, i love that incredible denseness and smoothness when done like that

Never let any moisture touch the potatoes!
Bake them in tinfoil and then stir in as much butter as you think is necessary.

How about you actually respond to the text about mash then?

Food processor, or run over them and commit suicide in your car as the inept cops bear down on you.

Just mash the fuck out of it
Me moms made this and in 20yrs never a single lump. No fancy tools, but I don't remember the details. It was something about proper cooking time, adding the milk and butter at just the right time, and the hand mixer was only to add air so that it was fluffy. The mixer will not do shit for tiny lumps.

put it in a food processor

Ps when she described it, it reminded me of building a good Alfredo sauce that doesn't fall apart and separate. Maybe the potatoes were cooled, or the milk was heated and added slowly. Fuck I don't remember.

get a ricer
I feel like I've read most of the posts in this thread before. All phrased exactly the same. what's going on?
Also, bitches won't such my cock even though I drive a BMW and have nice sunglasses. What's wrong with them?

Is it the 70s?
I use a power drill.

This shit is hard to fuck up.
Steam potatoes (cut them into small pieces so they cook quicker)
Mash potatoes in a pot or whatever.
Warm your milk up in a microwave and add it to the potatoes and also add butter/margarine at the same time time.
Keep mashing the fuck out of it. Add more warm milk and butter if required.
Keep mashing
Keep mashing
Okay you're finally done.
Season to taste. Add a little nutmeg, salt and pepper and you got yourself some good mash potatoes.
