Seasoned with olive oil, parsley, scallions, white pepper, and sweet paprika.

  1. Do you buy a specific paprika? What type of potatoes do you use?

  2. I used this paprika:

    You can purchase sweet, hot, and smoked paprika. The hot paprika isn't very hot at all. Paprika is a nuanced spice.

  3. I usually use russet potatoes or yukon gold for mashed potatoes. Many authorities say these potatoes are preferred because their high starch content makes them fluffy when mashed. But I haven't done any personal comparisons.
