Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Syracuse Salted Potatoes.
Step 1
Begin by gathering all your ingredients and giving the new potatoes a thorough wash to remove any dirt.
Step 2
Set them aside for later use.
Step 3
In a spacious pot, fill it with water and add a generous amount of fine salt, stirring until the salt is fully dissolved—no grains should linger at the bottom.
Step 4
Gently introduce the washed potatoes into the pot and bring the water to a vigorous boil.
Step 5
Once boiling, lower the heat and let the potatoes simmer for about 15 minutes, or until they reach a tender yet firm texture.
Step 6
After cooking, drain the potatoes and cover them to retain their warmth, allowing a delightful salt crust to form for a few minutes.
Step 7
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small pan over medium-high heat or in the microwave.
Step 8
Once melted, lavishly drizzle the warm butter over the potatoes just before serving, creating a rich and savory finish that elevates this simple dish to a new level of deliciousness.
Step 9
Enjoy the comforting flavors of perfectly salted potatoes, a timeless side that complements any meal.
