INTRODUCTION

Listen...I'm not against mayonnaise BUT I do tend to pick vinegar over mayonnaise in most cases, like sandwiches, cold salads, etc. And this salad does not disappoint. It's covered in a sauce full of dill, vinegar, lemon, garlic, mustard, and some sour cream to add a bit of that creaminess you miss from a mayonnaise potato salad. 

 

Feel free to add any other veggies you want with this too! I've added asparagus, green beans, green peas, jalapenos, you name it!

SPUD-TACTULAR

INGREDIENTS
  • 1 lb small potatoes (I used a petite medley with golden, red and purple potatoes)

  • ¼ cup olive oil

  • ¼ teaspoon lemon zest

  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice

  • 2 teaspoons salt

  • 2 teaspoons black pepper

  • 1 large garlic clove, minced

  • 1 tablespoon mustard 

  • ½ cup fresh dill, chopped

  • 2 tablespoons malt vinegar

  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

  • 2 tablespoons. sour cream

  • 3 scallions, chopped

INSTRUCTIONS
  1. In a large pot of boiling water. Drop in the whole potatoes (careful not to splash - use a ladle to drop in). Cook for roughly 13-15 minutes, until tender with a fork.

  2. While potatoes are cooking, whisk together all ingredients in a bowl, set aside.

  3. Drain the water from the potatoes, and with a potato masher or fork, mash the potatoes slightly (so it’s in bite-sized pieces but not mashed like mashed potatoes). 

  4. Add in all ingredients while potatoes are still warm, mix until incorporated, top with any extra dill sprigs.

BON APPETIT!
