POTATO SALAD WITH DIJON VINAIGRETTE
There's nothing complicated about this potato salad - it's really just boiled red potatoes tossed with a simple Dijon mustard vinaigrette and a generous smattering of scallions and fresh herbs - and that's the beauty of it. It's served cold or at room temperature, and its flavor gets better as it sits, making it an ideal dish to bring to a potluck or a picnic.

GRILLED MUSHROOM POTATO SALAD WITH DIJON MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE

Steps:
- Preheat grill. Brush the mushrooms with 1/4 cup of the olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill on both sides until golden brown and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Remove the mushrooms and slice thinly. Place the potatoes in a large bowl and add the mushrooms, onions and red pepper. Whisk together the vinegar, mustard and garlic in a medium bowl until combined. Slowly add the remaining 3/4 cup of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Pour the vinaigrette over the potato mixture and mix gently to combine. Add the thyme and parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve at room temperature.
Tips:
- Use a high-quality olive oil. The better the oil, the better the dressing will taste.
- Use good-quality Dijon mustard. Not all Dijon mustards are created equal. Look for a mustard that is made with whole grain mustard seeds and has a sharp, tangy flavor.
- Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs will give your dressing a more vibrant flavor than dried herbs.
- Taste your dressing before serving. Adjust the seasonings to your liking. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or acid (such as lemon juice or vinegar).
- Vinaigrette dressing will keep in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. You can make a large batch and have it on hand for salads, sandwiches, and other dishes.
Conclusion:
Dijon vinaigrette is a versatile dressing that can be used on a variety of salads and other dishes. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and flavorful dressing that will enhance any meal.
