German Red Potato Salad
Why I Love This Recipe
Ingredients You'll Need
1 1/2 pounds red potatoes
1/4 cup Dijon or Dusseldorf mustard
1/4 cup dry white vermouth
1/4 cup white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 yellow onion
2 stalks celery
2 tsp. capers
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
Chopped fresh dill to taste
1/2 lb. steamed green beans, in 1-inch pieces
Directions
Boil potatoes in their skins, covered, just until they can be easily pierced with a sharp knife. Meanwhile, prepare dressing in a jar, combining mustard, vermouth, vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste; shake well. Drain potatoes, let cool enough to handle, then peel and cut into thick slices. Place in a large bowl. Pour dressing over the potatoes while they are warm, tossing well. Add chopped onion, sliced celery, capers, finely chopped parsley, dill and, if you like, other chopped vegetables (red bell pepper, radish). Correct seasoning. Chill until served.
