Perfect Mashed Potatoes

These are the best Mashed Potatoes I have ever had. It is Martha Stewarts recipe, it it easy and yummy. I'm taking these to Thanksgiving tomorrow. These are in my own words. If you do a search at marthastewart.com type in perfect mashed pototoes.

2 lbs russet potatoes
1 Tbsp. salt plus more for taste
1 cup milk or cream
4 Tbsp. unsalted butter
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. nutmeg

Rinse, peel and cut potatoes. Place potatoes in pot and cover with cold water one inch above potatoes, stir in salt. Simmer until soft, or until a fork goes in and out smoothly. Drain potatoes. In small saucepan heat milk until low boil. Place potatoes in Bosch (that is what i have) or other mixer. Mix until smooth, then add the butter, add hot milk in slow stream while mixing. Add pepper and nutmeg.
