Christina's Notes
- Type of Potatoes: Use potatoes with a high starch content, like Russets, red potatoes or yukon gold potatoes.
- Ricer: A potato ricer for the creamiest texture and fool-proof mashed potatoes.
- Liner: Use disposable slow cooker liners to make clean up a breeze.
- Warm: Always add warm sour cream, butter and half and half or whole milk to get the creamiest mashed potatoes
- Cheese: Add cheddar on top for classic cheesy potatoes!
- Spices: Mix it up with different spices such as garlic! It all depends on your potato preference
