(Part 2) Best potato mashers & rices according to redditors

Newfangled potato masher? Like this

If you plan on doing this more than once, you don't want to use a coffee filter because they take forever to filter completely. Get a nut milk bag, they filter the solids perfectly and drain fast:

Also, don't try to squeeze out the excess oil by hand, because you will burn the fuck out of yourself. Get a cheap potato ricer from ikea like this:

Put the bag in the ricer once it drains and squeeze out the excess. No mess, no burns, no waiting.

If my German is correct, its a potato spiral cutter thing

That's pretty much in the ballpark, but chile is pretty variable by location. I would suggest buying chile from San Antonio, NM, Socorro, NM, or Hatch, NM...if it isn't one of those places, the chile probably won't be good.

If you know what you are getting into, there are some good places in Albuquerque, but you kind of have to know what you are looking for.

As a side note, do you have a ricer and a spare blender? You'll need that to sauce up the red chile.

Also, get some green (get it roasted and pealed), chop it up and add some garlic powder and bam...instant awesome.

I occasionally do small BIAB batches on my kitchen stove in a 7 gallon kettle. When I do, I place a steel colander over the top of the kettle and set the bag in the colander. This allows me to "squeeze" the bag by simply pressing in the colander. This only works because I am still using a bag.

I could see propping the basket up on top of the kettle or suspending the basket over the kettle and then simply pressing the bag against the bottom or sides of the basket. Of course this only works if you are using a bag inside of the basket; if the mesh in the basket is small enough that you don't need a bag, you could use a potato masher to press the wort out of the grain.

Does the bacon press just make your bacon flat? Cook it faster? Is it really that fun? I keep seeing them and think...this seems like something I don't really want. But people, you included, seem to really dig them

I got one of these double potato mashers at a restaurant supply store a couple years ago and it is -fantastic- on the cauliflower just as it always was on real potatoes.

Pork rinds...as breading....brb, gotta go cook something

I need a potato masher

Do you have any idea how hard it is to use my feet to stomp my potatoes into a mash? And then no one wants to eat them because my toe nail polish chipped off in the mash. Oh dear. A potato masher would be amazing and make dinner time delicious.

Thank you for the contest.

Potato Ricer. Never have to peel or bash another spud for the best mash.

Edit: these vary quite a lot in price. Just make sure you get a solid looking one with the bit that sticks out opposite the handles for resting on sauce pan.

Cheapest way of finding your blood type is to give blood to red cross or whoever. They'll let you know what type it is.

This One's my favorite. Bet it would work, too.

Throw all those god-damned mashers out. They simply destroy potatoes.

Do yourself a favour and get a Potato Ricer.

If you are super into fluffy mashed potatoes the only way to go is to use a “Potato Ricer” but get this kind https://www.amazon.com/Metaltex-USA-Potato-Ricer-White/dp/B00542ZCDE not this kind https://www.amazon.com/Norpro-Stainless-Steel-Commercial-Potato/dp/B0009SVZ84

I used to love my ricer but lately I like my mashed potatoes rustic and lumpy so I use a fork and hardly any milk or cream.

When I do it the potato skin is broken up by the masher. It may help that the potato is already cut into say 8 bits before boiling. I have one of these nylon mashers, not that i'd recommend that kind of masher.

this is a good size ( you need to look under commercial kitchen tools) this will hold one large or two smaller potato's and that's about as big as you want unless you're the Hulk ( and i'm a pretty big guy ) ... https://www.amazon.com/Winco-Stainless-Steel-Potato-Length/dp/B00DXOOKU6
