Boiling Potatoes

are tender enough that a fork or knife pierces the skin easily. 15-20 minutes.
Potato Salad Tips -
Peeling Potatoes
You may or may not want to remove the skin for your potato salad. If you decide to remove the skin a vegetable peeler or paring knife will do the job nicely. It is not recommended to peel potatoes well in advance of using as the flesh will turn brown.
Place peeled potatoes in cold water to avoid browning of the flesh immediately after peeling.
