Mashed Redskin & Sweet Potatoes 
1900 Park Fare 
Grand Floridian Resort 

Yield: 10 1-Cup Servings 
2 1/2 lbs. red skin potatoes 
3/4 lb. sweet potatoes, peeled 
12 tablespoons butter, softened 
1 tablespoon kosher salt 
1/2 tsp. ground white pepper 

Wash and cut both potatoes into uniform size pieces. Place potatoes in a  large saucepan filled with salted cold water. Bring water to a simmer and  cook potatoes until they can be easily pierced with a fork. Drain potatoes  and return them to the pan and place over medium heat and stir around to dry  out excess water. Place potatoes and butter in the bowl of an electric  mixer*. Begin whipping on low speed. Continue mixing until butter is  incorporated. Gradually increase the speed of the mixer to help make the  potatoes fluffy. Add the salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as  desired. If potatoes are too dry you can add hot milk to adjust the  consistency.  *Potatoes may also be mashed by hand in the pot that they were cooked in if  an electric mixer is not available. Do not use a food processor for mashed  potatoes as it will cause them to become a gluey, sticky mess.
