Instructions

Place the halved potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by at least 1 inch. Add a generous pinch of salt and bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a steady simmer and cook for 12–15 minutes, until a paring knife slides through the thickest piece with no resistance.

Drain the potatoes in a colander and spread them out in the large mixing bowl. Season with 1 tsp salt and let them cool for 15 minutes, until no longer steaming but still slightly warm.
