    Hand mashed, leave the skins on, milk, butter. Not mashed to goop but still mostly smooth. Lots of butter and milk.

    Red mashed potatoes rock.

    So if my husband tells me he prefers smooth over the chunky I make, that means he hates me and is trying to change me and I should leave him, correct?

    Can he be more obvious? And women say men are hard to read.

    These are not mashed potatoes. These are smashed potatoes. Also very good, especially with some fresh herbs and sour cream mixed in.
    But they're not mashed potatoes. Mashed potatoes are smooth and creamy.

    The end.

    If I go to the trouble of peeling the potatoes first I mash them smooth. If I leave the skin on for a rustic mashed potato with roasted garlic, cream cheese/sour cream, bacon, and green onion lumps are encouraged.

    Honestly, it just means serve his in a mixing bowl with a potato masher. He can beat them to death while everyone else looks on with amusement and eats their mashed potatoes while they are hot. :laugh:

    Mashed potatoes = mashed with a potato masher. Still has some little lumps in it.
    Creamed potatoes= beaten with an electric mixer until smooth
    Whipped potatoes= beaten on high setting with electric mixer until smooth and fluffy.

    I will devour any of the above with a passion!

    I will make any potatoes, but be clear on what u want. If u say mashed, there are chunks. If u say creamed, it will be smooth.
