Boiled Potatoes

Ingredients

• Potatoes
• Coarse sea salt
• Water

Directions

1. Wash the potatoes well and peel off a thin layer.

2. Place them in cold water to prevent discoloration.

3. Cut larger potatoes into pieces the size of smaller ones for even cooking.

4. If old, start cooking in cold water; if fresh, place in boiling salted water.

5. Boil slowly for about 30 minutes or until easily pierced with a fork.

6. Drain all water and shake the pot to expose the potatoes to air.

7. Sprinkle with a little salt and cover with a double cloth.

8. Let sit on the back of the range for a few minutes to evaporate moisture.
