Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Prepare a piping bag fitted with a large open star tip and coupler. Lightly grease a baking sheet. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a 3-quart pot, combine potatoes with 4 inches of water and 1 teaspoon of kosher salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low and simmer until the potatoes are fork-tender. (20-25 minutes)

03

Step

Drain the potatoes thoroughly and return them to the pot. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, to evaporate any remaining moisture. This step is crucial for achieving a light and fluffy texture. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Transfer the cooked potatoes to the bowl of a food processor. Process until completely smooth. Let stand for 5 minutes to allow steam to escape. Add the softened butter, egg yolks, the remaining 1 teaspoon of kosher salt, nutmeg, and black pepper. Pulse until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Spoon the mixture into the prepared piping bag. Twist the end of the bag to seal. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Pipe the potato mixture onto the prepared baking sheet in circular motions, creating eighteen 2-inch rosettes. Finish each rosette with a small, elegant peak in the center. Refrigerate the piped potatoes for about 25 minutes to help them firm up, which will maintain their shape during baking. (30 minutes)

06

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and heavy cream to create an egg wash. Gently brush the egg wash over the top of each potato rosette, ensuring an even coating. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the rosettes are golden brown and slightly crisp around the edges. (35-40 minutes)

For extra flavor, consider adding a clove of minced garlic to the potatoes while they are simmering.
Ensure the potatoes are completely dry after boiling to prevent a soggy final product.
For best results, use Yukon Gold potatoes for their creamy texture and naturally buttery flavor.
If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a large zip-top bag with a corner cut off.
