Coarse salt
2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup milk
Freshly ground white or black pepper

Steps:

  • Add potatoes to steamer basket and steam until tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • Heat butter and milk in a small saucepan over medium heat until the milk is warm and the butter has melted. Remove potatoes from steamer basket.
