Milk-less mashed potatoes

Tweet

Neither of us drink or use milk, therefore, we rarely have milk in the house. If we are planning a big dinner and I know we will have mashed potatoes, then I buy a pint of milk. But lets say on the spur of the moment I want mashed 'taters...what to do, what to do? Instead of milk I used chicken stock or you could use vegetable stock. It won't make the potatoes creamy, but it will give you enough liquid to get them well mashed and lump free,although a few lumps in my potatoes doesn't bother me! Someone suggested keepin milk in the freezer for a situation like this. I tried that one time. The milk didn't taste right and the consistency was off.
