Dutch Mashed Potatoes With Buttermilk Gravy Recipes

BUTTERMILK MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• In a large pot, bring 2 quarts of water and 1 tablespoon of salt to a boil. Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut them into 1 1/2-inch cubes. Add them to the boiling water and bring the water back to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes fall apart easily when pierced with a fork.
• Meanwhile, heat the milk and butter in a small saucepan, making sure it doesn't boil. Set aside until the potatoes are done.
• As soon as the potatoes are tender, drain them in a colander. Place a food mill fitted with a small disk/blade over a heatproof bowl. Pass the potatoes through the food mill, turning the handle back and forth. As soon as the potatoes are mashed, stir in the hot milk mixture with a whisk or rubber spatula. Add enough buttermilk to make the potatoes creamy. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and the pepper, and serve hot. To keep the potatoes warm, place the bowl over a pan of simmering water for up to 30 minutes. You can add a little extra hot milk to keep them creamy.

DUTCH MESS (WILTED LETTUCE WITH MASHED POTATOES) RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Make the Mashed Potatoes: Cook the potatoes until tender. While the potatoes are cooking, heat up the cream. Add the butter and stir until melted. Add the cream and butter to the hot potatoes and mash. Season to taste. Make the Dressing: Brown bacon in a frying pan. Remove bacon and pat dry. When cooled slightly, crumble the bacon into small pieces. Add vinegar, sugar, and water to the pan with the bacon fat. Stir to dissolve the sugar. Make the Salad: Combine the lettuce, bacon, hard-boiled eggs, and scallions. Top with the hot dressing and stir until the lettuce wilts. Serve immediately with the wilted lettuce over mashed potatoes.

BUTTERMILK GRAVY

Steps:

• Heat bacon drippings in a skillet over medium heat. Add flour and whisk until well combined and bubbly, about 1 minute. Pour in buttermilk gradually and bring to a boil, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking constantly, until thickened and smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Stir in chicken bouillon, salt, and pepper. If gravy is too thick, whisk in more buttermilk until you reach your desired consistency. Serve immediately.

BUTTERMILK MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a medium pot, cover with cold water and add 2 tablespoons salt. Bring to a low simmer and cook the potatoes, uncovered, until tender, about 45 minutes. Drain.
• Peel the potatoes and return them to the pot (for smoother mashed potatoes pass them through a ricer or food mill after peeling). Mash the potatoes with the buttermilk and butter using a fork or potato masher. Stir in 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper. Sprinkle with the scallions.

BUTTERMILK MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Place the potatoes and 1 teaspoon of the salt in a medium saucepan, add enough water to cover, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to moderate and simmer until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 45 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking water.
• Return the potatoes to the pan and set over low heat, uncovered, for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to let the potatoes dry out a little (too much moisture will dilute their flavor). For the smoothest potatoes, pass them through a food mill. For a slightly coarser puree, mash them with a potato masher or fork or use a hand mixer. Beat the buttermilk into the potatoes with a wooden spoon until thoroughly incorporated. If you prefer even creamier potatoes, add a little of the reserved cooking liquid. Beat in the butter, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and plenty of pepper. Serve at once, or keep the potatoes warm, covered, in a double boiler over hot water for up to 1 hour.
• In Advance: You can make the potatoes up to 3 hours ahead. About 20 minutes before serving, warm them in a double boiler, stirring frequently, until hot.

DUTCH MASHED POTATOES WITH BUTTERMILK GRAVY

Steps:

• 1. MASHED POTATOES: Peel the potatoes and cut 1-inch chunks and place potato chunks in a large saucepan add just enough water to barely cover them the potatoes. Bring to a boil. Add 1 tsp salt to the water, then lower the heat to medium and boil for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork. Drain potatoes, and return potatoes to the same pan. Add the butter to the pan, and mash the potatoes until smooth, adding a little bit of warm milk at a time if the mashed potatoes are too dry.
• 2. Wash the escarole, rinse and cut into 1/2-inch strips, leaving out the bottom part of the leaves (as the white vein tends to be hard and bitter). Stir the chopped escarole , 1/2 tsp sale and nutmeg into the mashed potatoes
• 3. BUTTERMILK GRAVY: Fry the pork (or bacon) in a skillet for about 5 or 6 minutes or until the pork is lightly crisp. Remove the pork (or bacon) from the pan. Add the flour to the pork fat and stir constantly until a smooth gravy forms. Slowly add the buttermilk while stirring, and keep stirring until the pan sauce thickens, then stir the cooked pork back into the pan sauce.
• 4. TO SERVE: Spoon the Buttermilk-Bacon Sauce over the foeksandijvie. Foeksandijvie can be served in two different ways. It can be served on individual plates with a little bit of the gravy poured on top of each serving. Or it can be served family style in which all of the foeksandijvie is placed in the center of a platter with all of the sauce poured on top, and then individual portions are then scooped from the platter.
