You honestly cannot mess up any thing like that! all that can happen is that it tastes richer, more like the real McCoy, so for the first time, do as you are told, and thereafter, experiment; the more milk and butter you add, the creamier and better they will taste; I also like to add dehydrated onion to them. first soak in water to hydrate. If you do not want to do that step, then put the onion flakes in the boiling water, then follow with the rest of instructions.

The packages of instant mashed potatos aren't that expensive so you may wan to try half a coup of milk a quarter cup of butter and a cup of water. The potatos may come out creamier but the experiment may be worth it.

I had somebody read the instructions to me, and it says to put 2 cups of boiling water in a bowl and then put the mashed potatoes and stir and then let's sit. Well, what if I want to use milk? Could I possibly use one cup milk 1 cup water? Or do these potatoes have so much milk in them that I should just stick to the regular instructions with the water? >> Mary >> >> Sent from my iPhone >> _______________________________________________ >> Cookinginthedark mailing list >> [email protected] >> http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark > > _______________________________________________ > Cookinginthedark mailing list > [email protected] > http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
