Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Golden Potatoes peeled and cut in 1/2 inch slices
  • 4 tbsp Unsalted Butter
  • 2 tsp Sea Salt
  • 2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • ¼ tsp Ground Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Prepare a large pot by filling it with water and attaching your sous vide to the side. Set the temperature to 190 degrees F and cover the pot with aluminum foil to trap in the heat. 
  • While the water bath is heating, prepare your potatoes by peeling them and then cutting them into half inch slices.
  • Add potato slices to a large bowl and toss with salt, pepper, garlic powder and whatever seasonings you like.
  • Add seasoned potatoes to a vacuum sealer bag and spread out so that they are as close to a single layer as possible. Add pats of butter to the bag before sealing. (OPTIONAL: See ziploc bag method below)
  • Place in a 190F water bath and let cook for one hour.
  • Remove from the water bath and empty the contents of the bag (including the liquid) into a large bowl.
  • At this point, add in heavy cream, milk or half and half. Then, mash the potatoes with a potato masher until desired consistency is formed. Adjust salt and seasonings as necessary and serve hot.
