To chop scallions, wash and shake dry. Cut off roots then chop ¼” from root end all the way through the onion. To cut leeks, wash well and shake dry. Remove outer leaves if necessary. Remove roots and quarter leek lengthwise up through 1” of green. Remove green leaves. With two quarters together, cut leek ¼”.

In large pot add potatoes and enough water to cover. Add salt and stir to dissolve and boil 35-40 minutes or until soft all the way through.
