Instructions

  1. Choose large white potatoes, as free from spots as possible;
  2. boil them in their skins in salt and water until perfectly tender;
  3. drain and _dry them thoroughly_ by the side of the fire, and peel them.
  4. Put a hot dish before the fire, rub the potatoes through a coarse sieve on to this dish; do not touch them afterwards, or the flakes will fall, and serve as hot as possible.
