Ingredients
- 9 to 12-ounces all-purpose potatoes, per person
- Approximately 1/3 cup warm milk or cream
- Approximately 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- Salt and freshly ground pepper, preferably white
- Freshly grated nutmeg
Directions
Boil the halved or chunked (but unpeeled) potatoes in a large pan of lightly salted water. When they are soft enough to mash, drain them thoroughly then push the potato pieces through a ricer.
With a wooden spoon, beat in the warm milk or cream and butter and season with salt, pepper and some freshly grated nutmeg, to taste. Eat alone and straight from the bowl for quintessential comfort food

Am task to cater a luncheon for 25 people. I am not a caterer. The crowd tends to be meat lovers so I thought I would make individual meat loaves. Of course, nothing goes with meat loaf like mashed potatoes. I am trying to make as much ahead as I can. Any suggestions for the easiest way to make mashed potatoes for 24 ahead of time? Can they successfully be reheated?
