Can You Freeze Mashed Potatoes?
2. Mix Potatoes for Flavor
As mentioned, potatoes with a high starch content are the best option when making mash and then freezing it. While it does help to give you that desired fluffiness, however, there is a drawback. The drawback being that starchy potatoes are also those that are the least flavorful.

Don’t worry though because you can still get the best of both worlds. For some added flavor to your mash, you can try using a blend of starchy potatoes and non-starchy potatoes. Yukon gold potatoes might be the best option for you, and they work great when blended with Russets. Try using 50/50 of each type.
