What Is Mashed Potato Mix Made Of?
Mashed potato mix typically contains dehydrated potato flakes, salt, and sometimes butter or other seasonings. The potato flakes are made by dehydrating cooked potatoes and then grinding them into small pieces. When mixed with hot water or milk, the flakes rehydrate and become fluffy, resulting in a quick and convenient way to make mashed potatoes. Additional ingredients can be added to enhance the flavor and texture of the final dish.
