TikTok user Shana took to the social media site to share a video of how she makes the mash – using a whisk.

“Trust me, you won’t use the grinder again!” she wrote along with the video.

The clip shows her using a double electric whisk to mash potatoes that she boiled earlier.

She adds butter, salt, pepper, cream – double or single – and a mix of herbs or chives.

“I eyeball everything so I can’t give exact measurements,” she added.

In the comments section, viewers praised Shana for the hack, with one saying: “I do this all the time.

“A lot of people compliment the fine grinding and it’s easier than a single grinder.”

“I’ve been using an electric mixer like this for my mix for over 20 years, it never fails,” another commented.

A third wrote: “It’s true and just easier to earn than grind!!”

Others were not convinced, arguing that this method would make the potatoes “dark” because beating the eggs would release the starch.

“Noo is like eating baby food!! Use a blender for the best puree”, one person wrote.
