📝 Preparation Steps
1
Boil the water. In a large stockpot, bring the 3 quarts of water to a rolling boil. Stir in the fine sea salt until completely dissolved.
2
Cook the potatoes. Carefully add the potatoes to the salted water. Boil uncovered for 20–⏱️ 25 minutes, or until fork-tender.
3
Drain and dry. Transfer the potatoes to a colander and let them drain for 2–⏱️ 3 minutes. Do not rinse. As they steam-dry, a light salty crust will form on the skins.
4
Make the garlic butter. While the potatoes cook, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and black pepper and cook for 1–⏱️ 2 minutes, until fragrant but not browned.
