Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Add a generous pinch of salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until the potatoes are completely tender and a fork slides in with no resistance, 18–22 minutes. Drain and let them sit in the colander for 2–3 minutes to steam dry.
