Instructions

  1. Put the potatoes in a large pot and add cold water to cover and add the salt. Place over high heat, cover, and bring to a boil. Uncover, and boil until the potatoes are tender, around 10-15 minutes.
  2. Put the shallot and parsley in a medium bowl. Drain the potatoes, and, while they're still hot, add them to the bowl with the shallot and parsley, and give it all a toss. Add the remaining ingredients, toss well, and let sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes, until the potatoes have absorbed all the oil and vinegar. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Make this with almost any potato: Baby potatoes, like red or yellow baby potatoes, are easy to cook and prep since they don’t need to be peeled or finely chopped ahead of time. However, chopped Russet, fingerling, or Yukon Gold potatoes will be just as delicious here.
  • Quarter the baby potatoes: Make sure the potatoes are cut into even quarters to help them cook evenly and in the same amount of time.
  • Warm potatoes are key! The heat from the freshly boiled potatoes tempers the raw shallot’s natural bite, enhances the parsley’s natural flavors, and helps the oil and vinegar soak into the potatoes.
