Default (off topic) Potato question

Whenever my MIL makes potato salad she claims she buys "boiling
potatoes." What are boiling potatoes? I never see a sign in the store
stating that this bin contains boiling potatoes. I am only asking 'cuz
she makes great potato salad and mine is always mush. I guess I am too
proud or too dense to just ask her. Please help.

Redskins are considered boiling potatoes. They are firmer, and won't
turn to mush unless you overcook them.
