A potato blender is a culinary instrument used to mash or blend cooked potatoes into a smooth or fluffy texture. It is also known as a potato masher or potato ricer. Usually, it has a handle and a head that is flat or perforated to facilitate mashing. In particular, a potato ricer pushes the potatoes through tiny pores to produce a smooth, fine texture. These instruments are frequently used to make baby food, mashed potatoes, or as a foundation for other potato recipes.
