Ingredients

5 pounds russet potatoes (

2 tablespoons kosher salt

1/2 cup evaporated milk

1/2 cup milk

1/4 cup buttermilk

1/2 cup unsalted butter

1/2 teaspoon white pepper

1 pinch cayenne pepper

1 tablespoon chives, or to taste

Directions

Peel and quarter potatoes, and transfer to a 6-quart pot. Add enough water to cover by 2 inches, and add 2 tablespoons kosher salt.

Bring to a boil on high heat, stir once, and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer gently, until potatoes are completely tender, but not falling apart, 30 to 40 minutes.

When potatoes are almost done, add evaporated milk, milk, and buttermilk to a saucepan, and place over low heat. Drain potatoes very well and add to a large bowl, or back into the pot.

Use a masher to mash potatoes smooth. Add butter; mash again until butter disappears. Add 1 teaspoon salt, white pepper, cayenne, and hot milk mixture.

Use a whisk or electric hand mixer on high speed to whip potatoes until light and fluffy. Taste for seasoning, garnish with melted butter and chives, and serve immediately.
