Boiled Potatoes with Dill
Instructions
Small New Potatoes
If using small new potatoes, scrub them clean and drop them into boiling salted water together with sprigs of fresh dill.
Cook, covered, over moderate heat till tender or about 15 minutes. Test with a toothpick.
Drain off the water and let the steam disappear. Serve at once.
To cook the larger (winter) potatoes
Select potatoes of the same size and scrub them clean. If desired, peel the potatoes before putting them in the pot.
Add water to cover and 2 tablespoons of salt for each pound of potatoes.
Bring to a boil, cover and turn down the heat. Let simmer till tender for about 20 minutes.
Drain well and let the steam disappear. Serve at once.
