For an even richer flavor, brown the butter before adding it to the mash. A pinch of nutmeg adds a warm, aromatic note. Feel free to experiment with other root vegetables like parsnips or turnips. Ensure the half-and-half is warmed to help it incorporate smoothly and prevent the mash from cooling down too quickly.
