Perfect Garlic Mashed Potatoes: The Basic Recipe

" No matter which way you like your mashed potatoes, this recipe will deliver perfect, garlicky results - every time."
Ingredients:
- Yukon Gold or Yellow Potatoes - 3 lbs, peeled and cut evenly into 2
- Garlic Mashed Potato Seasoning - 1 tbsp.
- Unsalted Butter - 1/4 cup, melted
- Salt - 1 tsp.
- Warm Milk, Whipping Cream, Half & Half, or Light Cream - 2/3 to 3/4 cups
- Fresh Parsley - Optional
- Freshly Ground Black Pepper - to taste
Instructions:
1. Place cut potatoes in a large pot and submerge in cold, salted water (for a flavour boost, use chicken or vegetable broth in place of water). Cover and boil on medium high for 20-25 minutes or until fork tender. Drain.
2. While potatoes are cooking, mix Garlic Mashed Potato Seasoning and melted butter in a small bowl and let sit.
3. Either mash with a potato masher or beat with an electric mixer on low speed.
4. Add garlic infused butter and continue mashing with preferred method until you reach desired consistency. Gradually add milk a little at a time to set the texture. (Don't over-beat with the mixer or they can quickly turn to glue.)
5. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired and, season to taste with freshly ground pepper and salt.
