For an even smoother consistency, use a potato ricer instead of a masher. Warming the milk and cream helps the potatoes absorb them more easily and prevents them from becoming gluey. If you prefer a milder flavor, start with just one chipotle pepper and adjust to taste. A squeeze of lime juice can add a bright, zesty counterpoint to the smoky heat. These mashed potatoes pair perfectly with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, or as a base for flavorful bowls.
