[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What are you using as a base? What kind of mashed potatoes are you using? Think about developing each of the parts separately to be delicious, then combining. Add umami (fish or worchestershire sauce, maybe a mashed anchovy or 2) and likely acid (wine, tomato). Salt and pepper, paprika. Make the mashed potatoes good on their own. I like to use sour cream in addition to butter for the bit of tang.[/quote] Oh it’s been so long I don’t really remember how I’d done it. But the mashed potatoes may be the culprit. I probably would be tempted to underseason and underbutter them thinking they wouldn’t need as much flavor as on their own. Good point. [/quote] Everything in a good dish needs to be properly seasoned and delicious. Otherwise it will drag down the whole thing.[/quote]
