So, which potatoes make the cut? Well, my friends, it's all about the starch content. You want potatoes that are high in starch, like Russet or Idaho potatoes, because they'll yield a light and fluffy mash. And, let's be real, who doesn't love a fluffy mash?
But, what about Yukon Golds? Can they be used for mashing? Absolutely! They've got a beautiful balance of starch and moisture, which makes them perfect for a creamier mash. And, let's not forget about the flavor - Yukon Golds have a natural buttery taste that's just divine.
