Potato Salad


For me, potato salads can be hit or miss. But when it's in the 90s, and you have these gorgeous, fresh from the ground potatoes, a salad is the way to go. I had never tried this recipe before, but I liked it!

-1 lb. potatoes, boiled and cubed
-juice of 1 lemon
-1 T. Dijon mustard
-2 T. sour cream
-1 shallot, finely chopped
-1 T. minced fresh dill
-1 T. chopped fresh chives
-salt and pepper

1. Whisk together the lemon juice, mustard, and sour cream in a medium bowl. Stir in shallot, herbs, and season with salt and pepper.
2. Add cooled potato cubes to the bowl and toss with the dressing. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.


As far as potato salads go, I thought this had a very unique flavor. There's no heavy mayo, which was a nice change, and the dill and Dijon really take center stage.
