If I had to pick one for a single batch of perfect mash? I’m going Yukon Gold. They’re more forgiving. They taste butterier. They don’t turn into wallpaper paste.
But for the ultimate holiday mash? The one that makes your grandma nod in approval? You mix them. You absolute mix them. End of story.
Now go. Boil some water. Peel those spuds. And remember: a little garlic in the water never hurt anyone. You’re welcome. Now, where’s my coffee refill?
