  • THE PERFECT MASHED POTATO WITH JOEL ROBUCHON’ S RECIPE
    Mashed potatoes were popularised by the French CHEF of the Century Joël Robuchon, who used The RATTE Potatoes to make his famous, creamy, smooth pomme purée. For the sake of his mashed potatoes, people booked a table in the restaurant for weeks.
    Robuchon earned no fewer than 32 Michelin stars across 13 countries during his lifetime, making him the man with the most Michelin stars in the world.
    Joel Robuchon is called the Master of mashed potatoes. Its principles: only high-quality products, simplicity of the recipe.
    What is the secret?
    Here is the secret of the apparently simple recipe of the famous dish. All in the choice of potatoes.
    There are several versions. Here is one.
    Preparation: 15 minutes
    Cooking: 35 minutes
    Ingredients:
    500g of potatoes.
    The type of potato to use is crucial. (Depending of the Country) Chef Robuchon in France used the RATTE POTATOES A waxy type of potato, with a Yellow flesh and a nutty flavor, the top of the top.
    In Australia I use a similar one the: KIPFLER.
    In the US and Canada I will recommend the YUKON GOLD.
    150 g of good butter unsalted (Chef Robuchon used a ratio of 1 to 2 (250 g of butter)
    I only add 150g for me I found it already very rich,
    150 mls of good fresh milk.
    5 g of cooking salt.
    1 or 2 g of extra table salt at the end to adjust the seasoning.
    AND THAT IS IT. SIMPLE, SIMPLE, SIMPLE.
    But no one can stop you to add, cheese, garlic, black pepper, Nutmeg, rosemary etc.
    The version I will present is the closest as the one of the Master.
    You will notice the difference is we won’t peel the potatoes in advance or cut in small pieces before cooking in boiling water.
    Method of the Master Joel Robuchon:
    1-Wash the potatoes but do not peel them. Cooking potatoes with the skin will limit them from becoming watery.
    2-Put them in a saucepan and cover with 1 litre of cold water. Add 2 large pinches of cooking salt. Bring to a boil and simmer for 30 minutes or until a knife slips in the potatoes easily and cleanly.
    3-When the potatoes are cooked, drain them and peel straight away. In order not to get burned, hold the potatoes with tongs or a fork, or use gloves or a tea towel.
    4-When peeled pass them through a potato ricer or use a potato masher like I did. Finish to pass the mashed potato through a fine mesh sieve in the pan that was used to cook them.
    5- Dry out the potatoes by putting the pan back on the minimum heat to remove the remaining moisture. It takes about 5 minutes and you have to stir constantly with a wooden spoon.
    6-Bring the milk to a simmer, stop the heat and set aside.
    - Add the butter to the saucepan in small parcels and stir until it is well integrated into the potatoes. Add the milk in a little stream while stirring. At the end use a small and rigid whisk and mix vigorously well until you obtain a glossy mashed potato. Add salt if needed. For an even lighter, finer purée, put it through a very fine sieve before serving.
    You have done your best Mashed potato in the World. Congratulations.
    These Mashed potatoes are a family favorite.
    They are the ultimate comfort dish that goes with everything and is so simple to make.
    Enjoy your meal. Bon Appétit.

    I did this once a few years ago. even borrowed my friends hand crank mill to get the texture perfect. I taste tested it vs my normal roasted potatoes. Even though my normal mashed potatoes were not as silky, I enjoyed the stronger potato flavor. In addition for the extra effort it took to make this style of mashed potatoes you can make fondant, which to me is superior to any mashed potatoes.

      Thank You Mrs None None for your great comment. Of course you can use and hand mixer for mashed potatoe, but with this type of potato who are a little bit more compact you have to use definitely a strong wooden spalula at the beginning of the mixing. When the mashed potato become more flexible then I will suggest you can use your hand mixer. I appreciate your comment. Enjoy your week end. 😊👍🏆🗼👄

    That to me is not good looking mashed potato. To me a good mashed potato is fluffy and not silky. But that's just me. THe secrets for the perfect mashed potatoes. Don't under cook them. Drain and put back in the pot with low heat and move them around to get all remaining humidity out. Warm up the milk or cream (whatever your choice, I use cream) before adding to the potatoes. If using milk, use whole milk.
