Ingredients
- 2 lbs. Farmer's Promise potatoes
- 1 tbsp. salt
- 2 cloves garlic
- ¼ c. unsalted butter
- 2 c. green cabbage
- 1 tsp. salt
- ½ tsp. pepper
- ½ c. heavy cream
- 1 c. cultured buttermilk
- 1 c. green onions, chopped
- 2 c. baby kale
Instructions
- In a pot, add potatoes and cover them with enough water so the potatoes are an inch below the waterline. Add salt and garlic cloves. Cook over high heat, bringing to a boil then reduce heat to a simmer.
- Cook potatoes for about 25-30 minutes or until fork-tender.
- While potatoes cook, in a separate pot, heat butter over medium-low heat. Add cabbage and salt then cook it gently in the butter, stirring occasionally until the cabbage is tender and translucent. Add cream and cook cabbage for about 5 more minutes until the cream is slightly reduced. Season the cabbage with black pepper.
- Drain potatoes, leaving the garlic in with them.
- Pass potatoes and garlic through a ricer or food mill, alternatively, the potatoes can be mixed with a stand mixer, hand mixer, potato masher, or even a sturdy whisk.
- Add buttermilk to the potatoes and stir to combine. Fold in the creamed cabbage, green onions and kale.
