You may not know your sauté pan from your soup pot, but one thing you've got figured out is that old standby, simple mashed potatoes and gravy. Right? Wrong. Not that you haven't figured it out, but there's so much more to mashed potatoes and gravy than you ever imagined. This is a gravy made of fiery, perfectly pungent peppercorns and deep earthy mushrooms, adding both warmth and depth. And these potatoes are decked out with not only butter but lux truffle oil. There's nothing simple here, except that it's simply delicious.
