What could cause mashed potatoes to stink?
Bacteria. Specifically S.pyogenes. This bacteria is present in the environment, and loves to grow on the starch in potatoes and rice. Don't leave your potatoes out of the fridge uncovred for too long, and definitely do not eat potatoes that have been in the fridge for more than a week. i won't even eat refrigerated mashed potatoes after 3 days.Other bacteria will also infest mashed potatoes if you put dairy in it, and the dairy will sour just as milk does after staying in the fridge for too long. No more than three days storage for potatoes with dairy. When you reheat do it in the oven or stove top. reheating potatoes in the microwave typically does not keep them hot enough for long enough to kill the bacteria.The good news is majority of the "food poisoning" you would get from typical potato bacterias would only last 12-24 hours...

Do you boil the potatoes for mashed potatoes with or without the skins?
Red potatoes with skin, anything else without. Actually, you can boil any potato with the skin on for mashed potatoes. Most of the vitamins and minerals are located just under the skin. If you peel the potato, there goes the good stuff. If you don't care for the skins either half peel the pots for less skins or use a ricer and the peels will remain in the ricer. It will be awfully fiddly taking the peel off afterwards, especially if you havent a ricer, if you want to keep the skins on for cooking, why not bake first, then cool a little and then take off the skins. Personally, I have always taken off the peel, and mashed, you do not really lose much , and if mashed with olive oil, until smooth, absolutely smashing.

Just place the bowl of mashed potatoes inside another bowl of warm to hot water. Use kettle water to replenish the heat of the water bath when necessary.
