I think I have an answer for you on making this ‘dippier’. Depends on what texture you want to add… if it’s gooeyness, then add a big handful of shredded Mozzarella to the potato mixture. If it’s creaminess you desire… then make your cream into a white sauce first and then add to the potato. (Maybe add some Parm cheese as well?)
Mmmmmm!

Alright don’t immediately dismiss this, but have you ever considered adding pureed rutabaga to mashed potatoes? They add a superior level of smoothness and interesting flavor. Personally I HATE the rutabaga, it is more despised by me even more than the disgusting brussels sprout; but I had mashed potatoes prepared this way once at a friends house and have made it several times since.
I had to experiment with the amount of puree to actually add to the potatoes, and finally decided that one quarter rutabaga to every three quarters pound of potatoes is about right. I don’t eat dairy (excepting occasional small amounts of butter and cheese) so discovering this made it possible to make smooth creamy mashed potatoes without the use of milk or cream. It really does make the potatoes really creamy and smooth.

In your pictures, it looks like you have sprinkled some sort of spice on the chees…. Is this just a red ppepper?

Mr. Atkins is rolling over in his grave haha!

And another thing…stop giving away all my secrets. First, you let everyone know that the tentacles are the best part of the squid (shame on you) and now you have leaked my secret mashed potato ingredient, cream cheese.

hi!

i stumbled accross this website and i’m so glad i did! i just moved and had a huge potluck with some friends over the weekend, and this was the dish i made (along with your sweet potato hummus), and it was GONE within ten minutes!

i subsituted the cream cheese with sour cream, and the consistency was PERFECT!

this is definitely something i’ll be making again.

thanks!
