• Joël Robuchon pomme purée recipe
• Potato ricer vs food processor
• Starchy vs waxy potatoes
• Ratte potatoes

Ingredients

• potatoes
• water
• 250 g butter

What it concludes

• Using a potato ricer instead of a food processor prevents the mashed potatoes from becoming gluey and stringy due to starch leakage.
• Using a fine mesh sieve is necessary to get creamy mashed potatoes and avoid lumps.
• Ratte potatoes provide a chestnutty, buttery, French-fry-aftertaste flavor that sets the purée apart.
