Super Easy Potato Salad step by step

1. boil potatoes. water should cover potatoes +1" leave Peel on..
2. *** Idaho and russet potatoes Peel very easy if you run them under cold water as soon as they are done..
3. after potatoes are tender, drain off water and run under cold water. rinse twice.. fill pan with cold water and let sit until there cool enough to handle.(about 30 minutes).
4. Peel potatoes.... if using Idaho or russets the Peel maybe able to be removed by hand. potatoes need to be boiled whole with Peel. .. this keeps them from falling apart and gives them a better taste.....
