I boil mine for 5-10 minutes, drain, dump onto a cookie sheet, fork smash, top with melted butter and salt, and throw in the oven until the peaks are browned.

That sounds good. Like a mashed baked potato.

And if you wait long enough, the potato will turn into several potatoes

I do my mashed potatoes by popping them in the microwave on potato setting. After their baked, run them under child water to get the skins to separate and then mash. Let’s you get more butter and milk than if it’s boiled in water first.

I know you mean cold, but child water is funnier

As funny as that sounds, I don’t think I want children urinating on my potatoes

I cut up potatoes into half, then half moon pieces, then into boiling water for 12 minutes, skins on, mash with salt, pepper, and butter, then some half and half. Done. That’s how I like my mashed potatoes.

Dull Men's Club

Create post

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men’s Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an “Africa, by Toto” option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.
