Maine Boiled Potatoes

Difficulty: Beginner
Ingredients
  • Medium Maine Potatoes
  • Water
  • Butter, Salt, Pepper (To Taste)
Instructions
  1. 1
    Using medium Maine potatoes, count on one to one and a half per person, depending on size. (Suggest Maine Yukon Gold, Maine round whites, or Maine Caribou Russets.)
  2. 2
    Wash potatoes well as you will cook them in the peel.
  3. 3
    With a paring knife, cut a strip of peel all around the potato. Cut the potato in half.
  4. 4
    Cover with cold water, add a tablespoon of salt, and boil on the stove until your paring knife slides easily into the potato, about 20-25 minutes.
  5. 5
    Drain well. Serve in the peel. The peel slides right off onto the dinner plate and there you go.  Mash with your fork, add butter and salt and pepper. Enjoy!
