Ingredients

2 pounds russet potatoes (about 4 medium), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
1/4 cup low-fat milk
3/4 cup buttermilk
2 teaspoons finely chopped dill
1 teaspoon thinly sliced chives
Freshly ground black pepper

Directions

In a large saucepan, combine the potatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, and enough cold water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat. Lower the heat to maintain a simmer and cook until fork tender, about 10 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return to the pan. Shake the pan over medium heat for about a minute to dry the potatoes. Transfer the potatoes to a food mill, ricer, or bowl.

Mash the potatoes through the food mill, ricer, or by hand into the pan. Stir in the low-fat milk, buttermilk, and dill warm over medium-low heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.

Cook's Note: Do not heat the low-fat milk and buttermilk before adding to the potatoes or they will curdle.

Good side!

Buttermilk mashed potatoes are the way to go! I especially love the incorporation of spices (the dill) added to this recipe.... Next time, I'll try some rosemary leaves... Read more

On paper this dish looks great, but it was really tasteless.

yummy!

I used red potatoes and left the skins on. Did not need any butter, tasted creamy and flavorful. Could probably put in a... little bit more chives and/or dill.Read more

This a relatively easy recipe, I cooked the potatoes (whole)the night before and left them with the skin on. The next... morning they peeled perfectly I just added a little more cheese than the recipe called for and they were woderful!Read more
