Cover the potatoes with cold water by 1 inch in a large saucepan and stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then boil until the potatoes are fork-tender but still hold their shape, about 10 minutes. Drain.

Return the potatoes to the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the excess liquid evaporates and the potatoes are dry, about 1 minute. Press the hot potatoes through a potato ricer into a large bowl.

Meanwhile, warm the half-and-half and butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until heated through and the butter is melted, about 3 minutes, then gradually pour into the riced potatoes. Stir to combine, season with pepper and the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and garnish with parsley.
