Better to rice your potatoes though, or they will get all gummy and icky! My husband likes lumps so I use an old fashioned masher, and always use real butter and cream. I call them my "Heart Attack Mashers". They are divine! Patti, love your site! I found you through Denise's blog, and I'm so glad I did! I was a personal chef for 10 years, but when the economy came crashing down, I had to give up my life of cooking professionally to one of leisure, as I had to get a "real" job as some of my friends put it. Good luck to you! Brenda, a Hobart is a giant Kitchen Aid mixer. Better to rice your potatoes though, or they will get all gummy and icky!

What is a Hobart in the cooking world? <em>Patti comments: it's a monster-sized commercial stand mixer. So sorry for the confusion!</em> I am always looking for ways to improve my most basic of culinary skills but living in Australia the only Hobart I’ve heard of is the capital city of the state of Tasmania!

For some reason I keep getting tempted by other gadgets that are sexier but probably less useful. I haven’t gotten a ricer yet, but now I really want one.
