My family and I love this recipe, interesting that the little buttermilk really makes a difference. To date I have never found a recipe I didn't like by Ina I just love her.

Very good! Yukon Gold Potatoes are a must! A dollop of butter at the end just adds to it.

Great and delicious. I usually just add regular 2% milk to my potatoes, but the buttermilk did give it a great flavor and zing. And btw, a plain old potato masher works just fine.

Really good, but nothing THAT exciting about them. Not sure what I was expecting, but since all Ina's recipes are usually knock outs, I was expecting to be impressed. Good, but not amazing.

LOVE this recipe! Potatoes are my favorite food, so it's hard to go wrong with them for me. But Ina's great at simple dishes like this, and she always finds a way to make them special - here, it's the buttermilk that makes this dish a winner. I have made the entire meal - which includes her Chicken Piccata and Herb-Roasted Onions - a few times and have totally amazed my Sunday dinner guests. It's one of my favorite plates of food out there.

I know that mashed potatoes are a typical fat-laden dish, and that many people think that's how they should be...however, I'm a health nut and always try to make recipes lighter and healthier. In this case, I used non-fat milk, low-fat buttermilk, and about 1/4 of the butter. I'm sorry, but there is NO reason why anyone should put a whole stick of butter in potatoes, it completely ruins any chance you have of benefiting from the healthy properties of potatoes, like fiber and protein. I promise, you won't miss it!

These turned out horrible. I'm not sure if the measurements are off in the recipe, but these turned out soupy and grainy. I will stick with my regular recipe.

I LOVE these potatoes! They come out perfectly seasoned every time. I usually end up using most or all of the buttermilk in the recipe, which gives it a yummy, subtle, sour-cream flavor.

I first made these with Ina Garten's Chicken Piccata & it tasted like I brought home takeout from an expensive restaurant. Yum! Can't wait to make them again!

These were delicious! I used really small potatoes and they cooked very quickly. This is my husband's new favorite. Thanks, Ina!

these were very tasty indeed. made them for a weeknight dinner (scaled the recipe back some and busted out the food mill. i was reminded why i never use the damn food mill...that thing is a pain in the *****!! i can't imagine using it on thanksgiving - while 100 other things are being finished and 25 starving people are staring at you!

will keep the recipe (really, just adding buttermilk to regular mash, but will be using the kitchenaid :-
