| 4 | Yukon Gold potatoes (about 2 lb) | |
| Salt | ||
| 1 | tablespoon | Unsalted butter |
| ½ | cup | Hot milk, or more as needed |
| Freshly ground pepper | ||

Directions
1. Place whole unpeeled potatoes in a saucepan of cold water. Add salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until tender when pierced with the tip of a small knife, about 40 minutes. Drain.
2. When cool enough to handle, peel potatoes and put through a ricer or food mill on the finest blade. Beat in butter with a wooden spoon.
Beat in hot milk little by little until a smooth, creamy consistency is achieved. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (If making ahead of time, keep in a heatproof bowl, covered with aluminum foil, set over a pot of hot water. When ready to serve, reheat over simmering water. You may need to add additional hot milk to thin.) 3. Just before serving, whisk ½ t of the truffle oil into the potatoes. After dishing out potatoes, make a little well in each serving and drizzle
¼ t oil on top.
