mashed potatoes – Moe Lane

Life hack for reheating mashed potatoes.

Toss ’em in a saucepan with a generous amount of butter, stir them periodically under medium-low to medium heat until smooth, and then trust that they’ll heat up properly. This last bit is the hardest bit, of course. But it’s good comfort food for your spouse when s/he has a cold.

And now, a tiger hugging a man.

All that being said, though: bacon salt.. Bacon salt will make you happy. At least, it will make you happy if you also have mashed potatoes. And why don’t you have mashed potatoes, anyway? They’re not hard to make: scrub a potato down, cut it into quarters, dump it into boiling water, come back in a half hour, drain, add a little real milk, a little real butter, and, well, mash them up until it looks right. Then add the bacon salt and more butter.

Simple, really.
