Preparation: Remove the pan of Whipped Potatoes from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 15-20 minutes. This helps ensure even heating.

Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Pro Tip: For best results, place a pan of hot water in the oven when reheating. The steam will keep your food moist and speed up the process.

Reheating Time: Heat in the oven according to the following guidelines:

• 2 pounds: 30-35 minutes 
• 3 pounds: 35-40 minutes
• 4 pounds: 40-45 minutes
• 5 pounds: 45-50 minutes
• 6 pounds: 50-55 minutes

**Larger pans may require slightly longer heating times, and it is a good idea to gently stir the pans a couple of times during reheating.**
