Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pound new potatoes
- 1/4 cup Pommery mustard
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
- 1/2 cup green onions, sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh dill for garnish
Instructions
- Wash the new potatoes thoroughly, removing any dirt or blemishes. Leave the skin on for added texture and nutrition.
- Cut the new potatoes into uniform bite-sized pieces, approximately 1-inch cubes, ensuring they are roughly the same size for even cooking.
- Place the potato pieces in a large pot and cover with cold, salted water. The water should be about 1 inch above the potatoes.
- Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat, then reduce to medium-high and cook for 12-15 minutes until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
- While potatoes are cooking, prepare the dressing by whisking together Pommery mustard, olive oil, white wine vinegar, sliced green onions, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl.
- Once potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and let them cool for 5-7 minutes, allowing excess moisture to evaporate.
- Gently fold the warm potatoes into the prepared dressing, ensuring each potato piece is evenly coated.
- Let the potato salad rest for 10 minutes at room temperature to allow flavors to meld together.
- Before serving, garnish with fresh chopped dill and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Serve at room temperature or chilled, as preferred.
Tips
- • Always start with cold, salted water when boiling potatoes to ensure even cooking and enhanced flavor. • Keep potato pieces uniform in size for consistent texture and cooking time. • Don't overcook the potatoes - they should be tender but still hold their shape. • Let the potatoes cool slightly before dressing to help them absorb the flavors better. • For maximum flavor, allow the salad to rest for 10 minutes before serving. • Fresh dill is not just a garnish - it adds a bright, herbaceous note that elevates the entire dish. • This salad tastes even better the next day, so don't be afraid to make it in advance!
