Recipe - Florentine Potatoes

1 pound Boiling potatoes
3 tablespoon Butter
One half cup Milk
1/3 cup Freshly grated Parmesan
cheese (Parmigiano
Reggiano, please don't
substitute!)
Salt to taste
Ground pepper to taste

Make mashed potatoes in the normal wayusing a whisk to beat the potatoes
while adding the milk and butter a little at a time. When half the milk and
all the butter is incorporated add the grated cheese. When the cheese has
been incorporated continue adding the remaining milk until the potatoes are
fluffy. Be careful at this point as you don't want the potatoes to be
runny. When you are ready to serve you can add some hot milk. Oh yes, the
potatoes should be in the top of a double boiler while you are beating
them.
