Salted potatoes
Salted potatoes are a traditional side dish originating in Syracuse, New York, where they're so popular that supermarkets sell boil-in sets containing potatoes and the required amount of salt. Small white potatoes with the skin are used, with about 0.5 kg of salt for every 2 kg (4.5 lbs) of potatoes. The salt increases the boiling point of the water, resulting in a particularly tender, creamy interior. As the potatoes dry, the skin becomes coated with a contrasting, crunchy saltiness. Salted potatoes are usually eaten as an appetizer, dipped in melted butter, or tossed with herbs and served as a side dish.
