Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash and peel the potatoes.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized chunks.
- Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add a good pinch of salt to the water.
- Bring the potatoes to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender but not falling apart, about 15-20 minutes.
- While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the dressing.
- In a small bowl, combine the finely chopped onion, olive oil, vinegar, 1 tbsp of grainy mustard, and 1.5 tsp of salt. Mix well until the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them well and transfer them to a large mixing bowl while they're still warm.
- Pour the prepared dressing over the warm potatoes. Use a spatula or a wooden spoon to gently toss the potatoes, ensuring they are evenly coated with the dressing.
- Sprinkle the dried parsley, 1/2 tbsp of grainy mustard, and 1/2 tsp of black pepper over the dressed potatoes.
- Gently toss the potatoes again to distribute the herbs and mustard evenly.
- Let the salad sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the warm potato salad immediately.
Tips:
- Opt for waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Red potatoes as they hold their shape better during cooking.
- Cut potatoes into uniform pieces to ensure they cook evenly.
- Boil potatoes in salted water until just tender. Overcooking can make them too mushy.
- When the potatoes are still warm, add the vinegar first to allow the flavor to absorb better.
- Feel free to experiment with different types of mustard, such as Dijon or whole grain, to vary the flavor profile.
- If you have fresh parsley available, use it instead of dried parsley for a more vibrant taste.
- Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning, vinegar, and mustard to your preference.
- For added texture and flavor, consider adding chopped celery or pickles.
Your warm potato salad with grainy mustard and parsley is now ready to serve! The combination of flavors creates a vibrant dish that is both comforting and refreshing. Enjoy it fresh and warm, or let it sit to allow the flavors to meld even more. This salad is a perfect complement to any meal and is sure to be a crowd-pleaser at your next gathering.
