"When potatoes are old, pare them and drop them into a pot of boiling water, and boil until a fork can be run through them easily; if you wish them whole, pour off the water and put them in a little salt, and let them remain over the coals a few minutes. This will make them mealy. If you wish mashed potatoes, take them up and mash and beat thoroughly; add a spoonful of cream, butter, and salt. When potatoes are young and small, take about three and put them in a cloth and squeeze. This makes them mealy, and gives the appearance of large potatoes. Dress with cream and butter."

The skins need to be removed?

There is nothing like a chunk of steaming hot boiled potato with a little salt and a bit of icecold butter melting on it... delicious!
It's the simple things...
