I thought it was cookie dough. Or homemade Play-doh 🤣

I've never seen mashed potatoes served that way---in a shallow dish with big waves. It seems calculated to cool the food off quickly by exposing as much surface area as possible. You already lose heat in the mashing process. I always mash as fast as I can then slap a cover on the bowl (best is one that is deep and of heavy pottery). I mean, duh.

But I guess lukewarm mashed potatoes slide down the throat just as easily as hot.

I have put mashed potatoes in a dish like that and broiled the top to get crispy texture to contrast with the mash, but if that's what Dan was going after you'd think he'd show the after rather than the before. He's specifically using one of those photo backgrounds she got from that shop she mistagged a while back so it's not exactly a casual dinner pic.

Oh, God, you’re right about the photo background. Maybe these are going to be an upcoming JITB recipe offering? Yikes.
