People are just realizing there is a rack way to mash potatoes

Jan 11, 2024

AN influencer has stunned viewers after sharing how he makes mashed potatoes with little effort.

The content creator shocked fans as his trick didn't involve the use of a traditional potato masher.

Instead, the TikToker (@The_Gooch) used a knife, a wire cooking rack, and a bowl.

In the viral social media clip, he placed a baked potato on the wire rack before cutting it in half.

He then pressed the potato skin down against the cooking tool.

While most of the potato ended up in the bowl, the skin was left on the rack.

Fans were impressed with the trick as they rushed to post comments.

One viewer commented: "Hol (sic) up the potato one is actually really good."

Jaeleigh G said: "This is a fabulous way to make mash potatoes."

But, not all TikTokers were thrilled by the alternative way to mash potatoes.

A TikToker (@dinner_with_roberto) quipped: "A lot of cleaning there!"

Another influencer commented: "There's a potato masher for a reason."

@The_Gooch is known for wowing fans with his creative cooking hacks.

It's just the latest viral hack that has left TikTokers stunned.

Fellow TikToker Briona B (@Brihonor28) caused controversy when she shared how she uses her kitchen roll holder.

In another kitchen hack, some influencers were left puzzled after realizing they had been using strainers wrong.

An internet star shared how he managed to open a packet of bacon with ease.
