Boiled Potatoes II
Ingredients
- potatoes
- salt
- water
Directions
- Potatoes should be well brushed, dropped into a basin of cold salt and water, and when a saucepan of water boils they should be placed in it.
- When a fork will pierce them easily, they are done.
- The water must then be strained off, the saucepan drawn to the side of the fire, a clean cloth folded over the top of the saucepan, and the lid pressed down on to it.
- This dries the potatoes, and makes them a good colour.
- They should be held in a cloth and peeled, then re-heated for a minute.
- New potatoes, if well brushed or scraped, do not require peeling.
