Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Can I use other types of potatoes?
A: Yes, red potatoes or even sweet potatoes can be mashed, though they will have a different texture and flavor compared to Russet or Yukon Gold.

Q: Can I make mashed potatoes ahead of time?
A: Yes, mashed potatoes can be made up to a day in advance. Reheat them gently over low heat, adding a little extra butter or milk to bring back their creaminess.

Q: How do I keep mashed potatoes from getting gluey?
