How did they get potatoes in ancient Ugarit?

My husband is in charge of mashed potatoes in my house and there is no way he is adding carrots or parsnips.

I will have to make these devil mashed potatoes. They sound quite tasty and I love all things potatoes.

I always add cream cheese (instead of sour cream) to my mashed potatoes. I know it may sound gross, but it makes them taste delicious.

Ugh, why would you want to adulterate perfectly good potatoes with the nastiness of carrots? Otherwise, it sounds delish.

Would you use white or red wine? I got both(for cooking purposes only, of course)!

cahkaylahlee, Dean Foods still makes IMO, but it’s hard to find. Probably something you need to beg your local grocer to stock.

I love parsnips, too. In a recipe like this, especially with all those carrots, I’d be surprised if anybody could pick out any parsnippy flavor.

Slightly off topic, but does anyone know what happened to Imo? It was a sour cream substitute that had a crazy long shelf life, and it disappeared from grocery stores a few years ago.

This recipe sounds way delicious by the way. And I love parsnips!
