I love your idea, tried it tonight with my family, but thought about how to distribute the garlic evenly in the mash. So I tried my idea which was to warm milk and unsalted butter in non stick pan and added the pressed garlic to the pan and gently warmed the mix whilst stirring, then added mix to the mashed potatoe. Which was very successful. Thank you for your inspiration!

America’s Test Kitchen (PBS) demonstrated this recipe today. Someone called me so I missed part of the demonstration and, unfortunately, you have to pay to get their recipes.
Basically, you finely mince the garlic & saute gently in 4 TBS butter in a large dutch oven, until soft. Add 1 1/4 cups 1/2 & 1/2. Add your 1/2 diced and peeled potatoes (4 lbs, I think) which you have run under cold water faucet for a few minutes (for some reason). Cover and simmer for 29-25 minutes. When tender, mash. Add another 12 TBS butter (this seems excessive), S&P to taste.
Pretty sure this is about right. Not sure how much garlic–I think it was quite a lot (that’s when phone rang)
