Servings: 6
- 2 pounds baby potatoes approximately 1-2" in size
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt for the water
- 2-3 tablespoons melted butter
- ½-1 teaspoon kosher salt adjust to taste
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper adjust to taste
- 1 tablespoon finely minced Italian parsley
Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover them with water. Bring them to a boil. Add 2 tablespoons of salt and stir to dissolve into the water.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, about 12-15 minutes, depending on size.
Drain the potatoes and carefully place them in a bowl. (If you dump the potatoes into the bowl, they may break and the skins will rub off the potatoes.)
Drizzle generously with butter and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm.
