Thanksgiving in my family is all about quantity and quality, it’s a true marathon.
In order to achieve some semblance of balance and moderation. I like to eat mostly veggies and taste a bit of everything else, while still saving plenty of room for dessert, or that’s at least my game plan going into the day.
So far, I have shared a healthy salad and vegetable side dish. This recipe is one to splurge on. I even added…
wait for it…
BUTTER….and
The true star of these mashed potatoes is by far the truffle oil. I just love truffle oil. I would like to eat everything truffle flavored.
There is a restaurant in Boston (also Washington, DC) and a few more locations that serves a dish served with a truffle vinaigrette. It was the most delicious vinaigrette I have ever tasted. I wanted to bottle it and take it home.
Back to these potatoes. The point is they have truffle oil, therefore they are amazing.
