Great and very simple recipe! I added two crushed garlic cloves and that made them even better. People can't stop eating them. I would highly recommend adding the garlic if you like it.

PERFECT MASHED POTATOES. For those of you who have not used buttermilk or think they do not like buttermilk, don't be afraid it gives the potatoes a great depth of flavor without being overpowering. The combination of buttermilk and whole milk makes the potatoes rich and smooth. I wouldn't change a thing with this recipe try it first without any subtitutions, DELISH!

This was my first attempt at from-scratch mashed potatoes. I used red potatoes and the flavor was perfect; I could still taste the potato, the creaminess of the milk, butter & buttermilk was not overwhelmingly rich, and the texture with 3/4 C. buttermilk was exactly how I liked.

I made this as a side dish for baby back ribs. I increased the buttermilk and did not use regular milk at all and they came out fabulous. My husband and son had seconds. Very easy to make, this recipe is a keeper. Thanks Ina!

Buttery, creamy mashed potatoes, it doesn't need anything else.
One reviewer said that these came out too watery. My suggestion is to add the buttermilk gradually to reach the consistency you're looking for. I ended up using only half a cup of buttermilk and found that the flavor and consistency was perfect. Keep tasting and adjusting ingredients as you go so you don't add too much of anything.
I also omitted any additional salt as I found what was added to the mashed potatoes earlier was enough.

simply wonderful. the buttermilk gives the potatoes a great flavor and the tip on keeping the potatoes warm really works out.

I made it and the result is very good. I made slightest changes: added to boiling potatoes some onion powder, then some dry dill to the ready mashed potatoes. Very good. Definitely will make again.
