boil your potatoes in salty water. water should be salty like the sea (same as for pasta). the potatoes will absorb the salt.
after you drain them, put the potatoes back in the pot dry over low heat to dry them out a bit. add butter and heavy cream. taste them, and if you need more, add more salt.
if you wanna try something a bit different, same as above and add wasabi. wasabi mashed potatoes kick ass like a pack of ninjas.
and get a ricer. not just because you wanna be like charlatan, but also because its great for mashed potatoes and gnocci, as well as other things.
