a dear, dear friend implied that I should look into getting a new potato
masher. Any thoughts? Are they all flat on the bottom, or do any have bottom tines which have a pointed or angled shape to cut through the potatoes with less effort? |

Your spuds should be knife tender before you mash. Sounds like you're not cooking them long enough. Skip a masher and use a ricer. Nice texture throughout the finished product. |

One that isn't flat on the bottom will certainly do a number on your saucepans....forget that idea. Mine is an old Cutco one that came with my knives back in the 50s. My grandmother had one that had a zig-zag flat shape on the bottom. Pretty much any one you buy will work. N. |

For me, I don't use a ricer because the potatoes cool off too fast. N. |

When they're done, I drain off the water, put back on burner and give the pan a good shake to dry out the spuds, remove em to a bowl with a slotted spoon, then I work the ricer right over the original pan which is still pretty warm and on that warm burner. I put the cover back on the pan and they stay nice and hot til serving time. I'm a fanatic about hot food, so I work fast to get en ready. I have even been known to melt the butter and heated sour cream and have it ready so as not to cool down the spuds. Finally, I eschew serving dishes when it's just us. I ice cream scoop em right onto our plates, then usually there's some kind of a sauce to pour on the spuds too. HTH. |

I have my grandmothers old potato masher. I prefer it over using an electric mixer. I would like to find one that has an angular or rounded shape so it works a little better in the rounded bowl you are mashing your potatoes in. I've never seen one with tines on the bottom.
