Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• Five pounds of new red potatoes
• Half a cup of dry white wine

• Freshly ground pepper

1. Put all of your potatoes into a large pot.
2. Pour cold water over the potatoes until they are all covered.
3. Boil the potatoes until they're tender.
