My Mother’s Hedgehog mashed Potato

Potato Puree, mashed potato, hedgehog

I was greatly influenced by my mother who went to culinary school. She taught me many tips and tricks about food art, and how to make fancy mashed potatoes.

The finished product should resemble a Hedgehog, in German it is called an Igel

I have been living half of my life in Germany, then US, and traveling since then. My passion is cooking, painting and glass mosaic art. I try to re-create recipes I grew up with, or I tasted while traveling in Europe.
