This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Everyone? I mean what do you use
chocolate milk
The Michelin Star way is 1:1 butter to potato ratio (yes, so 1 pound of butter for every pound of potatoes) and a tiny bit of salt lol. You just run the mash potatoes through a fine mesh until it becomes a super smooth paste.
Jeez. I knew restaurant mashed potatoes used a lot of butter, but that's pretty nuts if true.
Restaurant food tastes good because we make it the unhealthy way, and we have commercial grade burners. To quote Beavis and/ or Butthead: "FIRE! hu hu YEAH! FIRE!"
That's why high end star restaurants serve smaller portions. 1) cuz it's usually a lot of ingredients but also 2) there's a psychological aspect where you appreciate the food more because there's less of it.
Fine mesh? We don't have time for that shit. I think you meant stick a blender in there and whip the shit out of them till they're smooth.
That's why it's Michelin Star lol. I just mash everything into the pot it's cooking out of. I personally like having some chunks of potato.
Then you need to clean the blender.
Just mash with a potato masher or a huge fork for a couple min. Cleanup is: toss masher/fork into dishwasher.
Small batches sure. I'm not interested in mashing 100 lbs of potatoes by hand every day
butter and cheese
Cheese? What kind of mashed potatoes is that?
Cream cheese is good, but you need something liquid to thin it out... like milk.
the good kind ๐
I usually put neutral grated cheese, it doesn't add a lot of flavour but it adds texture
I mean, I use those too.
Add some sausage, some beans. Baby, you got a stew going.
Butter and salt.
