Boiled Potatoes
Potatoes may be boiled with skins on, or may be pared and boiled in salted water. Old potatoes should be soaked in cold water at least an hour. Potatoes should be boiled gently and not furiously.
When tender, drain thoroughly, dry on back of range. Shake saucepan, cover with coarse towel until ready to serve.
Serve in open vegetable dish, never in a closed one.
