Potatoes To Boil No 2 Recipe

Scrape off the rind; put them into an iron pot; simmer them till they

begin to crack, and allow a fork to pierce easily; then pour off the

water, and put aside the lid of the pot, and sprinkle over some salt.

Place your pot at the edge of the fire, and there let it remain an hour

or more, and during this time all the moisture of the potatoes will

gradually exhale in steam, and you will find them white or flaky as

snow. Take them out with a spoon or ladle.
