HERB POTATO SALAD
Steps:
- Place the potatoes and 2 tablespoons salt in a large pot of water. Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are barely tender when pierced with a knife. Drain the potatoes in a colander, then place the colander with the potatoes over the empty pot off the heat and cover with a clean, dry kitchen towel. Leave the potatoes to steam for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender but firm.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the wine, chicken stock, lemon juice, garlic, mustard, 2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper. Slowly whisk in the olive oil to make an emulsion. Set aside.
- When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into quarters or halves, depending on their size. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl and pour enough dressing over them to moisten. (As the salad sits, you may need to add more dressing.) Add the onion, tarragon and parsley, and salt and pepper to taste. Toss well, cover, and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Serve cold or at room temperature.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape better than starchy potatoes, such as Russet, and are less likely to fall apart when boiled.
- Boil the potatoes until they are just tender: Overcooked potatoes will be mushy and not hold their shape well in the salad.
- Cool the potatoes completely before assembling the salad: Warm potatoes will wilt the herbs and dressing.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs will give your potato salad the best flavor. If you can't find fresh herbs, you can use dried herbs, but use only half the amount called for in the recipe.
- Make the dressing ahead of time: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Taste the salad before serving and adjust the seasonings as needed: You may want to add more salt, pepper, or herbs to taste.
Conclusion:
Herb potato salad is a classic summer side dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With a few simple tips, you can make the best herb potato salad that is flavorful, refreshing, and perfect for any occasion.
