Do the mashed potato.

At last...perfect potatoes are possible. All you gotta do for the smoothest spuds is drop one in the basket of the potato ricer press, squeeze the handle (which won’t strain your wrists thanks to that extra gear mechanism) and—ta da!—that’s it. Whip out toppings for shepherd’s pie, delicate croquettes, or just enjoy ultra-fluffy clouds of mashed potatoes ready for a dollop of butter. And when you’re through? Talk about easy to clean: Just pop everything into the top rack of the dishwasher.

With this potato phenom in your drawer, you're just a couple peelings away from the dreamiest, smoothest pillows of mashed goodness you've ever dished up. More than a one-hit wonder, it'll become one of your most versatile kitchen tools, taking on the tasks of a food mill to press multiple cloves of garlic in one fell swoop, cream spinach from fresh or frozen in minutes, and even make apple sauce a cinch, all thanks to small holes punctured inside the sturdy press. Use it as a mini colander to drain away excess water from cooked potatoes for the crispiest-ever hash browns and pancakes. With that ergonomic handle your wrists will rejoice, and you'll find yourself whipping through cooking prep in a literal flash.
