pieces
1/2 C. (more or less) buttermilk
1 T. butter

salt and freshly ground black pepper
Place the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a
boil, cover, and cook over moderate heat until tender.
Put through a ricer or mash (don’t use a food processor – it will turn the
potatoes into glue).
Add buttermilk and butter (how much is up to you) and mix well.
Season with scallions, salt and pepper, saving a few scallion slices to scatter
on top.
