Potatoes can absorb a lot of salt. They are sometimes used to salvage an overly salted dish. -
Reduce heat and simmer the appropriate time for your altitude.
At sea level, this can be 8-10 minutes, above 8000 ft. it is more like 15 minutes. Above 15,000 ft., they might never get soft unless you use a pressure cooker. - When nearly done, puree a few of the potatoes and stir the mash into the cooking water.
-
Optional:
- Use a stick blender to puree part or all of the potatoes.
- Adjust seasoning.
- Serve with minced parsley.
