Mashed Potatoes

I like to use Yukon Gold potatoes to make
mashed potatoes but any potato is fine.
After making mashed potatoes you can add in
all kinds of seasonings and flavorings.
Chives, roasted garlic, bacon, or truffles.

Ingredients
6 potatoes, peeled
8 cups cold water
1 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Directions:
Cut up peeled potatoes in quarters,
and place in a pot with salted water.
Bring to a boil on high and lower
to simmer for about 20 minutes.
Drain water and keep potatoes in hot pot.
Add butter, salt and pepper to taste.
Mash potatoes as desired and add in milk,
Mash to combine milk to desired consistancy.
Serve warm.
