“Absolutely delicious! If I could rate it higher, I would. Only minor change made was to sub ground onion for the fennel. Made it with your slow cook short ribs recipe which we definitely will make again. Thank you for two very savory recipes!” — a cook, 5.0★
“I've never tried to make mashed potatoes before because I hear people complain about how long it takes. First of all, I don't know what they're talking about. Second of all, these are the best mashed potatoes I've eaten and I'm almost 40.” — a cook, 5.0★
