Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 pounds fingerling potatoes, halved lengthwise
3 large shallots, cut into chunks
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 cup sugar snap peas, trimmed
2 tablespoons tarragon vinegar or white wine vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon honey
1 cup heirloom cherry tomatoes, halved if large

1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley

2 cloves garlic, peeled
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 1/2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
Freshly ground black pepper
8 cups water
2/3 cup dry white vermouth
3 cloves garlic, smashed
2 tablespoons kosher salt plus additional for seasoning
1 sprig fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
4 black peppercorns
2 pounds small red-skinned waxy potatoes, sliced into 1/8-inch-thick rounds
5 medium carrots, peeled and sliced into 1/8-inch-thick rounds
1 bunch radishes, sliced into 1/8-inch-thick rounds (about 8)
1/2 English cucumber or 1 large Kirby cucumber, sliced into 1/8-inch-thick rounds
1 cup grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
3 scallions (white and green parts), thinly sliced
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup lightly packed chopped mixed fresh herbs, such as flat-leaf parsley, dill, or tarragon
6 lemon wedges

Steps:

  • For the dressing: Smash the garlic cloves, sprinkle with the salt, and, with the flat side of a large knife, mash and smear the mixture to a coarse paste. Put in a bowl and whisk with the mayonnaise, vinegar, and black pepper to taste.
  • For the salad: Put the water, vermouth, garlic, salt, thyme, bay leaf, peppercorns, and potatoes in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the carrots, lower the heat, and cook until the vegetables are tender but not mushy, about 5 minutes. Stir in the radishes, then immediately drain all the vegetables in a colander in the sink. Remove and discard the garlic, thyme, bay leaf, and peppercorns. Cool slightly and toss the vegetables with the dressing. Cover and refrigerate about 30 minutes. (The salad can be prepared up to this point a day ahead.)
  • About 10 minutes before serving, toss the cucumber, tomatoes, and scallions in a small bowl with salt and black pepper to taste. When ready to serve, fold the cucumber mixture and herbs into the potato salad. Serve with lemon wedges.

GARDEN POTATO SALAD



Garden Potato Salad image

This potato salad combines earthy, waxy fingerling potatoes with crunchy spring vegetables and mayonnaise flavored with fresh herbs.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 pounds fingerling potatoes
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons coarse salt
2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
1 bunch asparagus, ends trimmed
1 cup fresh shelled peas
1/2 cup fresh mint leaves, plus sprigs for garnish
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, plus sprigs for garnish
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, (1 lemon)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
8 ounces sugar snap peas, strings removed and cut in half
1 fennel bulb, finely diced (10 ounces, 2 cups diced)

Steps:

  • Place potatoes in a large pot with enough water to cover by several inches. Bring to a boil over high heat, add 1 tablespoon salt, and lower to a gentle boil. Cook until potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife, about 15 minutes. Drain into a colander. Using gloves or paper towels to protect your hands, slice hot potatoes into 3/4-inch-thick rounds. Drizzle with vinegar, and set aside.
  • Fill a large bowl with ice and water. Fill a large straight-sided saute pan with water, and place over high heat. Bring to a boil; add 1 teaspoon salt and the asparagus. Cook until just barely tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer to ice bath until cool. Dry, and cut diagonally into 2-inch pieces. Place peas in boiling water, and cook until bright green, about 1 minute. Drain into a colander; transfer to ice bath to stop cooking. Dry on towels.
  • Place mint, basil, mayonnaise, lemon juice, remaining teaspoon salt, and pepper in the bowl of a food processor, and pulse until smooth. Transfer to a large bowl, add reserved potato mixture, asparagus, peas, sugar snap peas, and fennel, and toss to combine. Garnish with basil and mint leaves, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes, such as Yukon Gold or Red Bliss, hold their shape better when boiled, making them ideal for potato salad.
  • Boil the potatoes until they are tender but still firm: Overcooked potatoes will become mushy and fall apart.
  • Cool the potatoes completely before adding them to the salad: This will help prevent the salad from becoming watery.
  • Use a light and tangy dressing: A mayonnaise-based dressing is a classic choice, but you can also use a vinaigrette or a yogurt-based dressing.
  • Add your favorite mix-ins: Some popular mix-ins for potato salad include chopped hard-boiled eggs, diced celery, chopped onion, and crumbled bacon.
  • Chill the salad before serving: This will help the flavors meld and the salad will be more refreshing.

Conclusion:

Garden spinach potato salad is a delicious and versatile dish that is perfect for picnics, potlucks, and summer gatherings. With its fresh and tangy flavors, this salad is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you are looking for a new potato salad recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
