Herb and Mustard Potato Salad
Description
The salad starts with 3 pounds of baby red potatoes boiled in salted water until tender, then cooled. Most are quartered with a few peeled and mashed to create a combination of textures in the salad. The dressing contains whole grain mustard, olive oil, white vinegar, fresh chives, parsley, salt, pepper, and garlic powder, which is whisked together and poured over the potatoes.
The mixture is gently tossed to coat evenly, allowing the dressing to infuse the potatoes with bright acidity balanced by the earthy mustard and herbs. Serving chilled or at room temperature enhances the dish's refreshing qualities, making it suitable as a picnic, barbecue, or potluck side.
The use of both mashed and chopped potatoes contributes creaminess without heavy mayonnaise, offering a lighter take on potato salad while still retaining satisfying texture and flavor.
