I need a new potato masher

[QSis]

I'm in the market for a new masher to replace the one whose handle I melted.

It's a pretty simple tool, but I'm wondering if there's a "better mousetrap". Any recommendations?

ATK always seems to love OXOgrip everything.

Zulay from Amazon. $11.00. I’m very happy with this one so far.

Or sometimes an electric hand mixer would work.

I don't even own a masher! I always use a ricer.

I don't either.
I use a fork to mash and a spoon to mix OR I buy instant lol

What's the point of the silicone? Mashed potatoes didn't have a sticking problem.

It cleans up pretty easy and I just like it

It won’t damage a non stick pot?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking, too.

Thanks, Mark - I will probably get that one.

Here is my grandmother’s potato masher that is over 100 years old.
We don’t use it, of course.

How is that being lazy? It seems like more work to get it out, plug it in then wash 2 whips… besides, it feels good to manually beat up the potatoes sometimes

Some folks like that. The last time that I made mashed was for Shephard's Pie, & believe it or not, I DID use one of the mashers. The nylon one to keep from scratching the nonstick coating in the insert bowl for the Ninja Foodi.
