Step by Step Method

Step 1

Peel potatoes, if desired, and cut into 2-inch chunks. Place the potatoes and salt in a large heavy saucepan. Add cold water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer, cover, and cook until potatoes are very tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Drain well.

Step 2

Return potatoes to the pan. Mash with a potato masher, an electric hand-held mixer or by working through a ricer.

Step 3

Stir buttermilk, chives, salt and pepper into the potatoes. Return pan to low heat to re-heat potatoes through.

Step 4

Serve.

I had all of these ingredients in the house but wouldn't have thought to put them together. My Yukon Golds made a beautiful yellow color that tricked my kids into thinking they were full of butter -- and I was out of butter. Rich and delicious. Loved being able to use up the buttermilk in the refrigerator. It's getting too hot to turn on the oven and I didn't want it to go to waste. The chives were a great addition. These potatoes didn't need gravy. Thanks, Mikekey!

We really enjoyed these potatoes. I didn't have yukons, so used russets. They were creamy and yummy. Thanks for sharing, Mike.
