For an even smoother texture, use a potato ricer instead of a masher. To add a touch of richness, consider using heavy cream or half-and-half instead of milk. Feel free to experiment with different herbs, such as rosemary or thyme, to customize the flavor. For a make-ahead option, prepare the mashed potatoes as directed, then transfer to a baking dish. Before serving, top with extra Parmesan cheese and bake at 350°F (175°C) until heated through.
