    PSA: Cinnamon and nutmeg look identical, but cinnamon in your mashed potatoes tastes weirdly christmas-y. I tested it, sadly.

      You seem to be implying that you put nutmeg in mashed potatoes as a matter of routine.

        Nutmeg does interesting things to savoury foods. It’s subtle though. It’s often like a background singer making the other flavors better more than being a diva in its own right. I haven’t added nutmeg to potatoes yet, but now I think I might try it. I usually add some fresh ground nutmeg to my spinach and bacon quiche. Nutmeg would also be right at home in a sweet potato pie. So why not mashed potatoes?

          I like to put a little bit of nutmeg in mushroom soup. It adds a little more dimension to the flavor.

          I add the tiniest bit of nutmeg to my alfredo sauce. It adds to the complexity of the sauce.

        Wait, isn’t it very common? I always thought of the nutmeg+potatoes as a very common combination

          As most of the time, it depends on the country!

          Not sure about mash, but definitely have noticed it frequently in scalloped/cheesy potatoes

      I’ve never used cinnamon on my potatoes, but I add it to some savory dishes like chill. The key is, cinnamon cuts through, so you need veeeeeeeery little.
