Heart Healthy French Potato Salad Recipe


Heart Healthy French Potato Salad Recipe
I found this recipe in a Barefoot Contessa cookbook, they give credit to Julia Childs so so will I. I've made it sevaral times for BBQ's and it's great in heat because there is no mayo. Using fresh herbs is a must!

Ingredients
  • 1 pound small white boiling potatoes
  • 1 pound small red boiling potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons good dry white wine
  • 2 tablespoons chicken stock
  • 3 tablespoons champagne vinegar (or plain old regular)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijion mustard
  • 2 teaspoons Kosher salt
  • 3/4 ground pepper
  • 10 tablespoons good olive oil
  • 1/4 cup minced green onion, use green and white part

Directions
  1. Boil potatoes whole in salted water for 20-30 minutes until just cooked through.
  2. Drain water then put a towel over the top of them to continue to steam them for about ten more minutes.
  3. As soon as you can handle them cut them in half, or quarters if really large and place them in a meduim bowel. Gently poor the chicken stock as well as the wine (if no wine use extra chicken stock) on to the warm potatoes and allow them to soak up the liquid.
  4. In a separate bowl put vinegar, mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and then wisk in the olive oil.
  5. Add your vinaigrette to the potatoes.
