Emeril's Buttermilk Mashed Potatoes image

This basic recipe is perfect as is, but feel free to embellish it with other ingredients, such as goat cheese, grated cheddar cheese, roasted garlic, or sliced green onions. The recipe is from Emeril's new cookbook, "Emeril 20-40-60."These mashed potatoes are delicious with Emeril's Cider-Brined Turkey and Creamed Mustard Greens.

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
