Yield 6 as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds small red potato (about 2-inch diameter), peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
2 tablespoons table salt
1 medium clove garlic , peeled and threaded on skewer
1 1/2 tablespoons champagne vinegar or white wine vinegar
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 small shallot , minced (about 2 tablespoons)
1 tablespoon fresh chervil leaves , minced
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley leaves
1 tablespoon fresh minced chives
1 teaspoon fresh tarragon leaves , minced

Steps:

  • 1. Place potatoes, 6 cups cold tap water, and salt in large saucepan; bring to boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium. Lower skewered garlic into simmering water and partially blanch, about 45 seconds. Immediately run garlic under cold tap water to stop cooking; remove garlic from skewer and set aside. Continue to simmer potatoes, uncovered, until tender but still firm (thin-bladed paring knife can be slipped into and out of center of potato slice with no resistance), about 5 minutes. Drain potatoes, reserving 1/4 cup cooking water. Arrange hot potatoes close together in single layer on rimmed baking sheet. 2. Press garlic through garlic press or mince by hand. Whisk garlic, reserved potato cooking water, vinegar, mustard, oil, and pepper in small bowl until combined. Drizzle dressing evenly over warm potatoes; let stand 10 minutes. 3. Toss shallot and herbs in small bowl. Transfer potatoes to large serving bowl; add shallot/herb mixture and mix gently with rubber spatula to combine. Serve immediately.

I'm not a big fan of mayonnaise-based potato salads, but this one is different. The Dijon mustard and fines herbes give it a really nice flavor.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover potatoes. I had some mashed potatoes left over from dinner and they worked perfectly in this recipe.

I used a variety of potatoes for this salad and they all worked well. I think the key is to use a combination of waxy and starchy potatoes.
