Salt Potatoes

By carvalhohm

Ingredients

• 3 pounds small new (creamer) potatoes
• 4 quarts water
• 1 cup salt (see Note)
• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter

Preparation

Step 1

Place potatoes and water in a large pot. Pour salt over potatoes, cover, and bring to a boil over high heat.

Reduce heat to medium and cook 25 minutes, or until potatoes are fork-tender. Serve with melted butter for dipping.

Note:
For that authentic Central New York flavor, use an additional 1/2 cup salt. And if you have any of these left over, they’re perfect for making home fries to serve with any of your favorite breakfast recipes.
