Interesting pie blender utensil you have. Very unique potato masher. Never seen one quite like that shape/ style
These all sound good Colleen, in our house unless I plan for it we never have leftover mashed potatoes. They are one of Lyle's favorite foods. LOL
DeleteNice ideas...I especially like the idea of stuffing in the potato patties!
DeleteThe potato masher is my pie crust blender, as you see. However, the same company makes a larger potato masher of a similar design...this way I only keep one utensil to do both jobs, as I only do small amounts of potatoes by hand, and it's the best pie crust blender I've found.
You can also make pierogies and gnocchi.
ReplyDeleteOh, yes...I guess I need to find an expert to teach us the tricks of those recipes!
