POTATO AND TOASTED CORN SALAD WITH BUTTERMILK DRESSING



Potato and Toasted Corn Salad with Buttermilk Dressing image

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 pounds small red potatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 cups fresh corn (cut from about 3 ears) or thawed frozen
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
3 large scallions, chopped

Steps:

  • Cut potatoes into 3/4-inch wedges. In a large saucepan of boiling salted water cook potatoes until just tender, 8 to 10 minutes, and drain well.
  • In a large skillet heat oil until hot but not smoking and cook corn, covered, over moderately high heat, shaking skillet occasionally, until browned, about 3 minutes. Cool corn slightly and combine with potatoes in a large bowl. Potatoes and corn may be cooked 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
  • In a small bowl stir together buttermilk, mayonnaise, and vinegar. To potatoes and corn add buttermilk mixture, scallions, and salt and pepper to taste, tossing to coat.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use Yukon Gold or red potatoes. These varieties hold their shape well when boiled and have a creamy texture.
  • Be careful not to overcook the potatoes. They should be tender but still slightly firm.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • For a tangier dressing, add more lemon juice or vinegar to taste.
  • If you like a creamy dressing, add more mayonnaise or sour cream.
  • Garnish the potato salad with chopped fresh herbs, such as chives, dill, or parsley.
