- These ultrarich mashed potatoes taste intensely of Parmesan. They can be made up to three days ahead of time, which makes them convenient for Thanksgiving.
- For the fluffiest mashed potatoes, put them through a ricer while still warm.

- Kosher salt
- Pepper
- 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream

1. In a pot, cover the potatoes with water; bring to a boil. Add a generous pinch of salt and simmer over moderate heat until tender, 20 minutes. Drain.
