Photo: Wasabi Mashed Potatoes Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 pounds white potatoes, peeled and quartered
- 4 ounces sour cream
- 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup buttermilk
- 3 teaspoons prepared wasabi
- Salt and white pepper
- 3 green onions, sliced for garnish
Directions
Put peeled and quartered potatoes in a large pot, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer and cook until fork tender, about 10 to 15 minutes. Drain and put potatoes in a large mixing bowl. With a handheld mixer on low speed, break up potatoes. Add sour cream, butter, 1/4 cup buttermilk, and 2 teaspoons prepared wasabi and whip potatoes on medium speed. Add more buttermilk until the desired consistency is reached. Season with salt and white pepper, to taste. Garnish with the remaining wasabi and green onions.

My wife and I liked this recipe, however we felt that the mash was a wee bit sour after making it the first time, so we left out the sour cream the next time and really enjoyed the result. One other suggestion - before serving try sprinkling the mash with a little mixed Japanese salt, a sort of seaweed and salt mixture you can find at Japanese markets and which is usually used to top rice. Don't be put off by the negative reviews below about 'green' or 'gray' mash. If you use the suggested amount of wasabi, you'll have a nice but not overwhelming kick and the color doesn't change. Perhaps those folks confused tsp with tbsp....?
