Made a bunch of mashed potatoes yesterday and it was fucking delicious

Saved half for today and it had that distinct fridge potato taste :sadness:

I always end up tossing leftover boiled potatoes for this reason

    This time I heated my leftover mash on the stove, usually microwave

    Though even cold potatoes from the fridge have the weird bitter(?) taste

      hmm. Please describe in more detail how you store the potatoes. Do they (or their container) exchange air with the fridge?

        This time I just stuck the pot I made the mashed potatoes in in the fridge. It wasn't airtight. I have used airtight containers before on different forms of potatoes so maybe it's the cold doing something weird with the sugar in the potatoes or something
