🥔 Please Stop Boiling Potatoes in Water!
When Grandma found out, she never looked back — broth is the secret to mashed potato magic.
This recipe flips the script on traditional mashed potatoes. Instead of boiling in plain water, the potatoes simmer in rich chicken broth, infusing every bite with savory depth. Add butter, warm milk, and a splash of reserved broth, and you’ve got the creamiest, most flavorful mashed potatoes you’ve ever tasted. It’s a simple switch that makes all the difference — and once you try it, you’ll never go back.
