Whip up large batches of fluffy mashed potatoes with minimal effort with these Idahoan mashed potato flakes. These mashed potatoes are made with real, Idaho-grown russet potatoes that are washed, peeled, boiled, and mashed, and then fresh-dried, meaning the water is removed from the freshly-made mashed potatoes. So when it comes time to reconstitute, these mashed potatoes are able to deliver a natural, fresh potato flavor and velvety texture without any of the associated hassle. Serve as a hearty side to your beef, pork, or chicken entree, or use them to create loaded mashed potatoes or mashed potato bowl stations, complete with all the fixings! These mashed potatoes are also a great addition to a variety of casseroles, and just one cup of prepared Idahoan mashed potatoes is equivalent to one medium fresh potato. Try it in your Shepherd's pie or loaded baked mashed potato casserole to cut down on prep time without sacrificing a house-made taste.
To prepare using 5 lb. of potato flakes, simply pour 2 1/4 gallons of boiling water, 1 1/2 lb. butter, 4 1/4 tbsp. salt, and 4 1/4 quarts of milk into a stand mixer. Pour in the potato flakes and use the paddle attachment of your mixer to mix at low speed for approximately 10 to 15 seconds. For creamier mashed potatoes, stir in additional hot water or milk. Each 40 lb. bag yields approximately (840) 1/2 cup servings, making these mashed potatoes a convenient, quality option for caterers, cafeterias, and any other operator looking to keep up with the demands of a busy crowd.
Idahoan was founded in 1951 when a group of Lewisville, Idaho potato growers banded together to start a potato dehydration plant. The proprietary dehydration process that the farmers developed is still used today as it better preserves the natural taste and texture of potatoes than most dehydrated potato sellers. Over the years, Idahoan has expanded its product portfolio from mashed potatoes to include flavored mashed potatoes, hash browns, soups, and casseroles, and all of Idahoan products always start with the same main ingredient: 100% real Idaho potatoes. Committed to bringing you convenient, shelf-stable products that never compromise on a fresh, homemade taste, Idahoan offers the perfect solution to your high-volume kitchen.
