- Choose starchy potatoes like Russets for a fluffier mash or waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold for a creamier texture.
- Roasting the pumpkin before mashing can enhance its natural sweetness and add extra depth of flavor.
- For a smoother mash, pass the cooked potatoes and pumpkin through a potato ricer before mixing with butter and milk.
- Adjust the amount of milk for your desired consistency – add more for a creamier mash or less for a thicker consistency.
- Season the mash with salt and pepper to taste, but be mindful of the salt content in your pesto.
