Cooking Steps
• Wash and dry produce. • Peel and dice potatoes into 1⁄2-inch pieces. Peel garlic. Mince one clove; leave remaining clove whole. Peel and mince shallot. Strip thyme leaves from stems; chop leaves until you have 1⁄2 tsp. Roughly chop sage until you have 1⁄2 tsp. (For 8-12 servings, make this recipe in two batches.)
• Place potatoes and whole garlic clove in a large pot with enough salted water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer. Cook until potatoes are tender, 15-20 minutes. • Drain potatoes and garlic, then return to pot. • Add 3 TBSP butter to pot; mash potatoes and garlic until smooth. Stir in sour cream and half the milk. Season generously with salt and pepper. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
• While potatoes and garlic cook, in a medium bowl or measuring cup, combine demi-glace, stock concentrates, and 3 cups water. Set aside. • Melt 3 TBSP butter in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add shallot, minced garlic, chopped thyme, and chopped sage. Cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Stir in 3 TBSP flour (be sure to measure—we sent more!) and cook, whisking constantly, 30 seconds more. • Slowly whisk in stock. Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce to a low simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 8-10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• To pot with mashed potatoes, stir in an additional 3 TBSP butter, adding splashes of remaining milk as needed until desired consistency is reached. • Transfer mashed potatoes to a serving dish. Spoon gravy over top or serve on the side.
