Mashed Potatoes
3 large russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 stick butter
1/3 cup sour cream
1/4 cup buttermilk
1/2 tablespoon black peppercorns
3-5 whole cloves of garlic
2 large fresh rosemary sprigs
1. Put all dairy products (butter, sour cream, and buttermilk) in a dish and allow to come to room temperature.
2. Fill large pot 2/3 full of salted water. Add peppercorns, whole cloves of garlic, and rosemary sprigs. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, remove the rosemary sprigs and add potatoes.
3. Boil potatoes until very, very soft. Drain and put back in large pot, garlic and peppercorns still included. Let sit and steam for 5 minutes.
4. Add dairy ingredients and mash together. YUMMO!!!
Bon appetit!

Do you mince up the garlic cloves I assume?
The garlic cloves remain whole throughout the entire cooking process. They get mashed up when you do the mashing at the end. They get so soft that there shouldn't be any problems with having large chunks of garlic in the potatoes.
