  2. Drain the pot. Then dry the potatoes over low heat in the pan on the stove or on a sheet pan in a 300°F oven until no more steam rises from them.
  3. Heat the milk and cream.
  4. While the potatoes are still hot, purée them through a food mill or potato ricer into a heated bowl.To purée is to grind or mash food until it is completely smooth.
  5. Combine butter, milk and cream. Mix into the potatoes by hand or with the paddle or whip attachment in an electric mixer until just combined. Season well with salt and pepper to taste.
