INSTRUCTIONS
Cut each potato into 3 pieces. Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and
cover with cold water. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are
easily pierced with a knife, 20-25 minutes. Drain well.
When the potatoes are just cool enough to handle, peel and place them in a
large bowl. Using a fork, mash them roughly. Mash in the butter, cut in 3
or 4 pieces, followed by the buttermilk, salt and freshly ground pepper.
Mash just until the potatoes are fluffy and combined with the other
ingredients. Adjust the seasoning and serve immediately.

Notes: For incredibly light, yet rich-tasting mashed potatoes, I use a bit
of butter and a splash of buttermilk. The buttermilk gives them a creamy
texture and its cultured flavor adds a tangy, old-fashioned appeal.
