Add 2 Tbsp. salt and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are just tender, about 15 minutes.
Drain, then let cool slightly (the potatoes should be warm when you dress them, which will help them soak up the dressing).
Meanwhile, cook eggs in a large saucepan of boiling water 8 minutes (whites and yolks will be set).
Drain; transfer to a bowl of ice water and let cool.
Drain, peel, and quarter eggs.
