4 servings
- 2 lbs yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1 ½-inch chunks
- 1 tsp salt, plus more for the cooking water
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into pieces
Chef's tipUse a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one. - ½ cup whole milk
Chef's tipUse the same amount. Whole milk is richer, so a lower-fat milk will make the dish a little less creamy. This matters most in baking and custards, where the extra fat adds richness. - 2 tbsp fresh chives, thinly sliced (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover with cold water by at least 1 inch. Add a generous pinch of salt and bring to a boil over high heat.
- 2
Reduce the heat to a steady simmer and cook until the potatoes are completely tender and a fork slides through the center of a chunk with no resistance, about 15–18 minutes. Drain thoroughly and return the potatoes to the pot.
