Making My Mom's Mashed Potatoes


Tonight I made mashed potatoes the same way that my mom does. They came out of good but not the same way they do when my mom makes them. I took me about an hour and a half to make them. I used 8 potatoes, evaporated milk, butter, and salt. I was interesting trying to make them the way my mom does because I thought it would be easy but I realized that my mom has a magic touch because my mashed potatoes came out lumpy and hers do not. Everyone who tried them said that the mashed potatoes were good. In the future I am going to try and make them again and see if they come out any better. I definitely learned that making mashed potatoes the way my mom does takes some time and it a little harder than I thought. All in all I had fun making mom's mashed potatoes.

Potatoes are, as Julia Child says, "a queer vegetable," which behave in unpredictable ways.
