Wasabi Mashed Potatoes
My Wasabi Mashed Potatoes are creamy smooth with a nice amount of heat from the wasabi. Perfect with a simply seasoned piece of sautéedor roasted fish. Typically, if I am serving fish with these potatoes, the only seasoning I add to the fish is salt, it doesn’t need anything else.

- 2 Pounds Russet Potatoes Peeled, 2-inch dice
- 1/2 Cup Half & Half Simmering
- 2 Tablespoons Wasabi Hot (Temps vary, read the label, adjust quantity as needed
- 1/2 Cup Unsalted Butter Melted
- 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
Place diced potatoes in a small pot covered in salted water over high heat. Water should have enough salt to taste like the ocean. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and cook at a low boil until a knife pierces the potato easily. Approximately 20-25 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return to the pot over low heat. Let the potatoes steam uncovered for about 1-minute to evaporate some of the excess moisture.
Combine all the other ingredients in a small pot and bring to a simmer, stirring frequently so it doesn't burn. (or microwave until steaming hot).
Add the hot liquid to the potatoes and use a hand masher, mash the potatoes until smooth, about 1-minute
