Ingredients

  • 2 lbs potatoes do not peel, Golden Idaho® variety
  • 3 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil (or more, good quality)
  • ⅛ tsp kosher salt (or sea salt, to taste)
  • 1 bunch green garlic chives, or green onions, leaves

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Scrub/wash the Idaho® potatoes and place in a pot of cold, salted water (about one teaspoon of salt) and bring to a boil, then simmer gently over medium high heat until cooked.
  2. Drain and let cool slightly, then peel. Place in a bowl, and allow cool completely.
  3. Meanwhile, chop the green garlic.
  4. When the potatoes have cooled, cut them into smaller pieces (I cut the smallest potatoes into halves, and the larger ones into thirds.)
  5. Now, drizzle generously with the olive oil, sprinkle with salt if needed, and toss in the green garlic. Gently mix or toss to make sure the flavors of all the ingredients blend together well.

Notes

  • Flavors improve if the salad rests for 1-2 hours before serving.
  • Best enjoyed the day it is made, as refrigeration changes the potato flavor.
  • Scrub potatoes well before boiling; peeling after cooking is easier.
