Basic American FoodsPotato Pearls, Original Butter Mashed Potatoes, Large Size for Food Services and Restaurants, Easy To Prepare, Made with 100% USA Grown Potatoes,28 Ounces (Pack of 12)

So tasty and super easy. No comparison to the imitation instant potatoes from the store. These are amazing!

These are the absolute best mashed potatoes if you are not making them from scratch. So simple, 2 cups of water for 1 cup of pearls. Boil the water, drop in the pearls when water is boiling, cover and in 5 minutes you have perfect potatoes. They need no salt or seasoning, but I love to put just a little pepper in the water as it boils. They store well. They come in sealed bags and you can transfer to an airtight container for the pantry to use when ever you want. I eat these almost daily.

These are THE best instant potatoes. Our food service rep walked in our door 20 years ago with these and told us, "Give them a try. Trust me." We did. We had a catering job the next weekend. We dumped these into the pans, added boiling water, covered and walked away. Five minutes later, we came back and tested them. AMAZING. We added some pats of butter and some Canadian steak seasoning, stirred them up and sat back and watched the response.EVERY person who came back for seconds also got potatoes.Our customer thanked us for the "extra effort of making real potatoes". We reminded her she had ordered instant potatoes, and that's what she got. She said, "Yes, I know these are instant but they taste REAL ... like real made-from-scratch! My guests think I splurged on ordering made-from-scratch mashed potatoes!"I make real mashed potatoes for my family most "special meals", and we like lumpy mashed - more like smashed. But all other meals, for the past two decades, have been these potatoes.Follow directions. The manufacturer knows their product and has gotten plenty of feedback from customers. If you want something less thick, yes, add more water to suit your desired results. Or, add butter, sour cream, mayo, etc.Pro-tip: once they are set, get creative. Add pats of butter and let them melt. Add some steak seasoning. Maybe add herbs. Shredded cheese. You name it. They are great on their own but I use them as a base and then build on them.

Loved by everyone , easy to prepare . Even better with simple additions

These are truly the best mashed potatoes. You wouldn't believe how many people thought they were made from scratch. They have a nice buttery flavor. They are also great for thickening up potato soup. Add cheese and bits of bacon with a little sour cream. Yummy. You can fix them so many ways. My only go to for mashed potatoes. The case gives you 500 plus servings of mashed potatoes. It last us quite awhile. Trust me you will love them and you will be back for more.
