"Everyone loves their creamed spinach and mashed potatoes, they are classics," he says. Rather than going with a mundane side salad, a classic creamed spinach recipe amps up the vegetable, giving it a tangy, creamy spin that complements prime rib's buttery flavor.
"I like to add a nice horseradish cream to the mashed potatoes for something special," he says, emphasizing the versatility of flavored mashed potatoes as a perfect match for tender prime rib.
"If you want something different, try a hasselback potato; it's a crispy potato cooked in butter and they are to die for," he explains, suggesting a unique side that pairs excellently with prime rib.
The prime rib is certainly the main event, but it's still nice to maintain a sense of cohesiveness with the sides by using the same seasonings on the rib as you do for the sides.
