Mashed potatoes are more than just a side dish in my family; they’re a treasured tradition that unite us all. Furthermore, nothing quite beats the coziness and gratification of creamy mashed potatoes, despite my best efforts to offer healthier alternatives. That is, until I came across a TikTok tip that revolutionized this traditional dish.

Using chicken stock, user Jourdyn, also known as @jeauxp on TikTok, shared a creative take on classic mashed potatoes. I was intrigued by this out-of-the-ordinary concept and made the decision to test it out to see whether it could live up to the buzz.
I was astonished and delighted to see what amazing results we got. The potatoes’ flavor was elevated to a whole new level by the subtle umami flavor that the chicken stock added. The best part was that, when boiling, leaving the skins on gave the dish an incredibly appealing rustic feel.
Inspired by this unexpected gastronomic discovery, I kept experimenting. My personal favorite was the mashed potatoes with sour cream and chives added to them. Everybody at the table was amazed with the presentation and the fantastic flavor combo.

However, my gastronomic adventure on TikTok didn’t end there. Along the road, I learned even more amazing techniques. For instance, I discovered that a dash of nutmeg can give spinach a completely different flavor profile. And who would have guessed that hardened brown sugar might be softened by a piece of plain bread?
I’ll tell you what, these unorthodox tips have not only increased my culinary skills but also given my food a unique flair. It’s incredible how a minor adjustment or surprising addition can make all the difference in a recipe.
So the next time you’re making mashed potatoes, why not give these unusual twists a go if you’re feeling daring? You never know when you might find your new go-to recipe while experimenting with unusual ingredients or trying out TikTok hacks. Your taste buds will appreciate it, I promise!
Meet the Hottest Type of Men According to the Internet Now: “Rodent” Men
“Men are either eagle handsome, bear handsome, dog handsome, or reptilian handsome,” reads a viral tweet from May 2023, citing Ryan Gosling, Henry Cavill, Heath Ledger, and Timothée Chalamet as examples of these types. The tweet resonated with many — Cavill’s broad shoulders do have a bearlike quality, and Ledger’s blonde hair and wide smile do resemble a golden retriever. However, there’s arguably another category many men fit into: rodent handsome.
Rodent handsome men are usually more svelte than muscular, with pinched, angular features. They might not be conventionally handsome, but this only adds to their appeal. Two recent examples of rodent-handsome men are Challengers co-stars Josh O’Connor and Mike Faist, often compared to Roddy St. James (the rat from Flushed Away) and Stuart Little, respectively.
