Where and when did mashed potatoes originate?
Potatoes are native to the Andes Mountains in South America. A curious fact of culinary history is that there were no potatoes in Europe before the late 15th century. When potatoes are boiled, (a basic cooking method used in primitive cultures) the potatoes easily decompose in the water after a time. In fact, when making mashed potatoes, care must be taken not to overcook the mash. Chances are good that mashed potatoes (or something very much like them) were first eaten by the forebears of the indigenous Aymara and Inca people [who kept no surviving records of such trivia] in the Andes, millennia before Columbus.It's believed that Antoine Parmentier, a physician, was the first to make mashed potatoes, in a 1771 competition held in France.
