For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk.
Experiment with different types of potatoes for varying textures and tastes. Russet potatoes will yield a fluffier mash, while Yukon Gold potatoes offer a creamier consistency.
Adjust the amount of wasabi powder to your preference. Start with a smaller amount and add more until you reach your desired level of heat.
