Time 35m

Yield Makes 6 servings (side portions)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pounds small yellow or red potatoes
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar or champagne vinegar
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 medium scallions (green onions), thinly sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Add the potatoes to a large stockpot and cover with water by 2 inches. Add 1 tablespoon of salt to the water, and then bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain then set aside to cool.
  • When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them into bite sized chunks or slice into thin rounds. Add to a large salad bowl.
  • Whisk the mustard, lemon zest, lemon juice, vinegar, and olive oil together until creamy and emulsified. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour all but 1/4 cup of the dressing over the potatoes and toss. Set the potatoes aside for five minutes to absorb the dressing (it will look like a lot at first, but the potatoes will soak it up).
  • Add the scallions and fresh herbs. Toss gently, but thoroughly. If the potato salad seems dry, add a splash of the remaining dressing. Serve warm or cover and refrigerate, and then serve the salad cold.

Categories     side-dish

Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 pounds small white boiling potatoes
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons good dry white wine
2 tablespoons chicken stock
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Freshly ground black pepper
2/3 cup good olive oil
1/4 cup red onion, finely diced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

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.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes     Salmon Recipes

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/2 pounds small potatoes, scrubbed and halved
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
4 large eggs
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup finely diced red onion
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 ounces hot-smoked salmon (available at specialty stores and some supermarkets), flaked
3 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh tarragon, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare an ice-water bath. Bring potatoes to a boil in a large pot of water; season generously with salt. Slowly add eggs to water. Cook eggs 7 minutes, then remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to ice-water bath. Continue to cook potatoes until easily pierced with the tip of a knife, about 3 minutes more. Drain and let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together mustard, lemon juice, and onion. Gradually whisk in oil. Fold in potatoes and salmon; transfer to a platter. Peel eggs; halve crosswise. Arrange on top of salad. Season eggs with salt and pepper; sprinkle with tarragon and serve.

Tips:

  • Use Yukon Gold or red potatoes for the best flavor and texture. These varieties hold their shape well when boiled, and they have a creamy, buttery flavor.
  • Boil the potatoes until they are just tender. Overcooked potatoes will be mushy and fall apart when you mix them with the other ingredients.
  • Cool the potatoes completely before mixing them with the other ingredients. This will help to prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a variety of herbs in your salad. This will add flavor and complexity to the dish. Some good options include chives, dill, parsley, and thyme.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients. You can add vegetables like celery, carrots, or peas to your salad, or you can add protein like ham, chicken, or tuna.

Conclusion:

Potato egg salad is a classic dish that is perfect for potlucks, picnics, and summer gatherings. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like it simple or loaded with ingredients, potato egg salad is a delicious and satisfying dish.
