french potato salad

(from Joanna’s recipe box)

Source: albion cooks

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs small potatoes
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 1 tbsp. white-wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Dijon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil (I'm going to try and use less next time - I think it would be fine)
  • 2 tbsp scallions, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp parsley, finely chopped

Directions

  1. Scrub the potatoes. Boil some salted water and cook potatoes until they are just tender (use a sharp knife to check), 15-30 minutes depending on the size of the potatoes. Drain. As soon as they are cool enough to handle, peel them and cut them into 1/8" slices. Put the slices in a bowl as you go along and pour the wine over them as you go. Set them aside to absorb the wine. Toss very gently when you are done to ensure equal coverage.

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the vinegar, lemon juice, Dijon, salt, pepper and olive oil until it thickens. Add the scallions and pour over the potatoes. Sprinkle with the parsley and toss very gently. Serve at room temperature.
