Directions

• Bring a saucepan of water and the kosher salt to a boil. Add potatoes to boiling water.
• If using small potatoes, just boil whole. Add garlic cloves. Boil the potatoes over medium heat until they are very tender.
• Drain potatoes and add back to the saucepan. Place the potatoes back on the warm burner and allow the extra water to evaporate.
• Mash them up with a potato masher, process in a food mill, or use a ricer.
• When potatoes are mashed, add butter and stir to combine.
• Add buttermilk until you get the desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Do not over mix.
