      Or, if you've got issues with your hands and using a ricer is uncomfortable, the Salton Masha (looks like an immersion blender but is not) is PHENOMENAL. It's a wonderful little machine, and you can use it directly in your pot of cooked potatoes, all in one go.

    I used to make potato bread a lot. The key is the Oder of mixing the liquid. Add the warm milk, butter, to the potato and thin it out…then add room temperature eggs then whisk, lastly add in the sugar. Also, consider making smaller.

Sometimes certain food items are pure nostalgia. I bet it's been 25 years since I've had a fried biscuit. Can't eat them, now, due to surgery.

    While using fresh tators is great after leftovers if you make them regularly you can just use instant mashed potatoes which will always be smooth. There is a brand that used to sell potato-flour mixture for breads awhile back and AFAIK they used instant potatoes.

    I’m from New England and we have a local donut shop in my area that is known for their trademark donut which is potato based, and it’s delicious. There’s also this famed New England candy that I’m sure you’ve heard about called a “needham,” which is basically a sugar, potato and coconut mixture coated in chocolate. It’s heavenly.
    Also there is simply nothing better than a freshly fried donut, when it has that tender crispy outer crust. I just wish they stayed that way! When they cool and sit, you inevitably lose that crunch.

But my family likes them that way! Go figure. I might just get a FryDaddy. As I get older it's getting harder to read the thermometer that I keep on the side of the pan of oil. I use a soup spoon and a table knife to scoop the dough into the oil. Everyone loves the tails. It amazes me every time I make them how they turn out round and how they turn themselves over when they brown. So fun to make!!

    Potato doughnuts are a staple in central PA. We have a lot of farms all over the state, and they all come to the capitol for the PA Farm Show. It's a GIANT indoor faire. With auctions, and rodeos, and stalls to buy stuff. It's actually the largest indoor farm show in THE WORLD. Potato doughnuts, fried oreos, milkshakes make with local cow milk. Growing up there, we would be allowed to take Farm Show Friday off (it goes for a week) from school. And I would go and get a dozen or two just to take home.

    She really didn't care if the potatoes were lumpy. She just used an old wire tater masher to mash her potatoes. She used the same dough to make the best cinnamon rolls I ever had. The only thing that comes close is the Cinnabon ones with pecans.

    There are still a few Spudnuts shops in existence. The parent company went out of business but some independent stores are still open. There is one in Berea, Ohio and they are indeed the best donuts.

    I too would only eat that sausage cold. I loved biting into the snappy outer casings. I haven’t had kielbasa since I was a kid ❤

    My granda had a similar recipe for spudnuts where she used sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes. They were awesome! Less sugar was added to the batter as well. And they do form the dough in donut shapes instead of a donut hole as well.

    Emmy - I use an electric wok, so I don't have to use a lot of oil. I also put my powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar mix in a zip lock bag. This way the mess is contained.

    Use a ricer and rice the potatoes as soon as they are done. They can be put into the fridge for later. I learned this from my swedish great aunt Auntie.

    I used to make potato donuts when I was a kid. Try using an electric mixer to mash the potatoes first, then add the eggs one at a time and beat until smooth before adding the rest of the dry ingredients. That should help eliminate lumps of cold potato.

    Love watching your videos, makes me what to cook more! As far as the Alaskan Sausage goes it pretty much is like Polish Kielbasa. With less than 2% Reindeer Meat added you probably couldn't really tell the difference. Glad you enjoyed them though and I'm sure your kiddos will too!

    We drizzle half of them with powdered sugar glaze and roll the rest in cinnamon sugar. As I understand it the donuts were made to use up leftover mashed potatoes.

    I was thinking at the beginning of the video, "Wasn't Spudnuts a chain? I've definitely heard of them before." And then you mentioned them and that they were based in Salt Lake City and it all made sense, for I, too, am based in Salt Lake City.

    I made the sweet oil mistake when I made my own oliebollen (dutch yeasted round doughnut) on new year's eve.. I reused the oil and it felt like I was eating oliebollen the whole year. The sausage looked like a dutch smoked sausage (rookworst ) we eat in wintertime with 'stampot' 😋.

    I have one of those fryers and I love it!!! If you had done the batter in a mixer maybe it would have beaten the potato lumps out? I wondered if they would end up dense but they look light and fluffy.
    Your kids hit the jackpot! All of those donuts.

Alaska Sausage Company (where your sausage came from) has a lot of really good products I can stock my freezer with for the holidays and maybe send a gift box to My friend in Maine!! I am anxious to try the spud nuts too though I would probably 1/2 the recipe and use powdered eggs to get the right egg amount. My holidays are going to rock this year. Thanks Emmy!!!
