You could make potato snowmen. Just add dots for the eyes and wrap a limp scallion around the neck for a shawl. The cayane red pepper for hair.
Chef Jon is the perfect mix of funny, knowledgeable, and cayenne ❤🔥🔥
You could end the swirl by pressing the tip into the mound. This would leave a concave little space at the top, and after taking them out of the oven, you can add some nice flavored butter there to melt into the potatoes. 🙂
"Why did I put that one all the way over to the side? No reason. My apologies to those of you who are disturbed by it. You know who you are."
GUILTY!
Guilty, guilty guilty guilty GUILTY!
I wish I was subscribed to see this for Christmas Eve. My wife is Chilean and duchess potatoes, or papas duquesas, are traditionally served for Christmas dinner. Their version is purchased frozen from the super market though, and they're much smaller, almost tater tot size. I didn't add cayenne pepper or nutmeg though, and I'm curious to try that next time.
I am the ching chong ching of your duchess potatoes. 😊
Your comment about being able to taste the nutmeg made me laugh. 😂👏
Definitely trying this out as my boyfriend LOVES potatoes. Thanks for sharing!
So good! I will try! Thank you for very inspiring videos, chef John!
Merry Christmas John.
I didn't think anyone had piped mashed potato since 1962.
I wouldn't quite serve the second pipe bag-free version to King Charles III but I'm sure both versions are delicious.
The rose shaped ones definitely look better

I did by 100% guarantee loose 120-188 trillion euro on my career because i was in mental asylum in 2019,2021 and 2022, 120-188 trillion euro is how much less i will earn during my life because i was in mental asylum in 2019,2021 and 2022. If i didnt went to mental asylum and i would during my life earn additionally 120-185 trillion euro. if they didnt put me to mental asylum now and i made about 97% of music in the radio in Denmark in 2023 or 2024.. i have to get instantly out of mental asylum i was just going to start with rapping 5-13 hours per day and i was going to practice singing alot in 3-5 weeks. this doctor who put me to mental asylum in 2021 and again today, is corrupted and he was paid to put me to mental asylum on the worst possible times, he is paid to put me to mental asylum without there ever was any second in my life where i had mental illness and he have to get 65-80 years in jail. I still HAVE TO GET MY 85-990 TRILLION DANISH KRONER IN COMPENSATION FOR BEING IN MENTAL ASYLUM IN 2019,2021 AND 2022. There was still never any second in my life that i ever had mental illness. They gave me injections with anti psychotic medicine since i was about 19 and 4 months old and they never stopped to continuously giving me anti psychotic medicine with injections while i slept so they stopped my constantly daydreams with 100% since i was about 19 and 4 months old and my daydreams never came back because they never stopped to often give me anti psychotic medicine with injections while i slept and it was always the plan to start practice singing alot and it was the plan to also be a singer since i was a beginner with rapping and when i would been famous with rap and i started alot with singing practice and i would improve super mega ultra extremely unbelievable lightning quickly with singing and rapping with my constantly daydreams and i would also used super much more time with rapping, singing and making songs because of my constantly daydreams and i made 97-99% of music in the radio in Denmark in 8.3-9.3 years in a row and since i would been famous and i could used many different drugs for singing and rapping and also better weed and i would already been 150000-160000 times better rapper than all other rappers from all countries in the world combined in 2016 and i would already been about 12000 times better than all other singers from all countries in the world combined at making songs and music by singing in 2016 and i would made High to very high % of music in the radio in all countries in the world since 2016 and today i would been about 47000 times better than all other singers from all countries in the world combined at making songs and music by singing and today about 350000-395000 times better rapper than all other rappers from all countries in the world combined and i would by 100% guarantee during my life get 4.4-5.8 million more listenings to my rap songs more than Eminems music have in total and by 100% guarantee during my life 6.8-8.9 million more listenings to my singing songs more than justin Biebers music have in total and all rap songs would been 1.5-40 octillion times better than 99,99995% of all others rap songs and 1.5-40 octillion times better than 99,9994% of all others singing songs in the world. I never had mental illness in my life and i tried to get attention deficit disorder diagnosis and i only told them all of the ADD symptoms that i Read up from a paper and she was paid 100s of tousand Danish kroner to give me a wrong/fake diagnosis so they could ruin my music career by putting me to mental asylum on the worst possible times and they put me to mental asylum 3 times now on the worst possible times. Now they stop me from taking memory and brain supplements and if i dont instantly get out of mental asylum and i would have to take those supplements for a long time before they would start working and it would take 1.5-2 months of taking it before i start practicing rapping. So if i dont get instantly out of mental asylum now and i would already lost trillions of Danish kroner on my career. I have to get instantly out of mental asylum right now or i would already loose trillion of Danish kroner on my career because it was just now in 3 days that i was going to use 5 to 13 hours per day with rapping. If my post wasn't sabotaged and I would everyday have between 22.6-23.6 cm penis if I added 1.5 cm foreskin since the middle of 2020, because I started making my penis permanently longer in the first half of 2020 if my post wasn't sabotaged.
Cooking is not easy: is enjoyable,
but not easy.
Lately many places state that cooking is easy.
IT IS NOT:
Requieres a great amount of preparation.
Buying groceries,
Be sure you have all the species and wines etc.
Be sure you have all the pots that you will need.
Be sure your cooking top, oven and other are working.
Then you have to prepare the groceries you bought.
Have to trim them and store properly.
Then the cooking processes, that have to be carefully done.
The presentation, and setting the table!
Then the taste, it is ok.
Or need to be adjusted!
So please, enjoy cooking, but remember Is not EASY!!’mm
Heard Chef John ! From Cook John !!
My favorite part was when Chef John said, "It's Cayenne time." and he Cayenned all over that recipe.
Think Chef had a little dip in the Christmas punch before voiceovering this one 🙂 Lovely!
Or the weather got to him, in which case. Get well soon Chef, we love you.
Another absolutely crap recipe
You dont need to pay subscriptions to get these recipes
You can get these for free anywhere on line
But hey
Mugs are mugs
It's not like anyone of you will make these
My family does a variation of this to spruce up leftover mashed potatoes. But without cayenne 😊 since the kiddies won't eat anything hot or spicy. I didn't know I could freeze them… a real timesaver! Thanks Chef John. ♥
Arrrrrrgggghhh.
What's with his voice? Every. Single. Sentence. Sounds like he's asking a question to a child.
It was driving me crazy after about 30 seconds. His inflection is almost torture.
Super duper! I like easy recipes that look very posh. Thank you.
He had me until the potato boobs
After seeing both, I will definitely be purchasing a piping bag.
Potatoes have to be as dry and hot as possible to mash for no lumps. Do not add butter or any fat until you get the correct consistency you are seeking. Once the fat is added it will become almost impossible to remove all the lumps. Hot and dry until smooth, then add your fat, i.e. cream, butter, milk or whatever you like.
The cadence of his voice is super unsettling like he doesn’t really know what he is talking about idk is it just me ?
Does not bode well.. for your liberty. #ThatOneDuchess Tried, and fancied. To thwart the Great Reign of the Queen of Tarts Martha Stewart, are you a Steelers fan too?
