Mashed Potatoes are a creamy and comforting side dish, traditionally made from boiled potatoes, butter, and milk or cream. Originating from various cuisines around the world, they’re a staple in American dinners, holiday feasts, and rustic European meals alike. Whipped to velvety perfection, they can be enriched with garlic, herbs, or cheese for added flavor.
