Directions:
- [this is exactly the way the recipe appears in the book, not like we do it today]
- Choose large white potatoes, as free from spots as possible; boil them in their skin in salt and water until perfectly tender, drain and dry them thoroughly by the side of the fire, and peel them. Put a hot dish before the fire, rub the potatoes though a coarse sieve on to this dish; do not touch them afterwards, or the flakes will fall, and serve as hot as possible.
- NOTES From Me:
- If you boil the taters with some garlic and/or onion powder, it will give them a marvelous flavor cooked-in that is much better than trying to add it afterwards.
- The melted butter can be drizzled on top after serving them for more flavor.
- Serve them with 2 forks to keep them fluffy.
