For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of cream or milk while mashing. Feel free to adjust the amount of mustard powder to suit your personal preference. A pinch of nutmeg can also add a lovely warmth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, don't over-mash the vegetables. Leave some small pieces for added interest.
