• Stir the parsley, dill and chives into the potatoes. Fold in the cheddar. Spoon the mashed potatoes into a serving dish.

VERMONT CHEDDAR MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Boil potatoes in well-salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain well in a colander and place in the bowl of a stand mixer with a wire whisk attachment. Beat at medium speed for 2 to 3 minutes to allow steam to escape.
• Turn off mixer and add cheese, baking powder, salt, pepper, cayenne and nutmeg. Beat again for a minute or so.
• Add butter and cream, mixing slowly, then increase speed to medium and drizzle in beaten eggs. Stop and scrape down bowl with rubber spatula to make sure ingredients are incorporated evenly. Beat at medium-high speed until mixture is smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Serve immediately in a heated bowl. Alternatively, transfer potatoes to a 2-quart baking dish, cover with foil and let stand at room temperature. Reheat for 30 to 40 minutes at 350 degrees, until piping hot. (If you want the top browned, remove foil halfway through baking. Otherwise give the potatoes a stir before serving.)

Steps:

• Scrub the potatoes, and cook, with the garlic, in a covered pot in water that covers them for about 20 minutes, or until they are tender.
• Chop the dill, and place in a serving bowl with the buttermilk and salt.
• When the potatoes are cooked, drain and put them, with the garlic, through a food mill over the buttermilk bowl, or mash by hand in the bowl. Mix and serve.
