"To make a good salad is to be a brilliant diplomatist -- the problem is entirely the same in both cases. To know exactly how much oil one must put with one's vinegar." -Oscar Wilde, Playwright
The refrigerator light goes on...
I love purple potatoes. They don't taste a whole lot different than other waxy potatoes -- maybe they’re a little sweeter. They do make a great addition to the plate, however, with the bright purple flesh against the pink of salmon or shrimp. A great dish to take to a potluck...
Potato Choices for Salads
For potato salads choosing a waxy potato like red potatoes or Yukon Golds will work best (see Potatoes). After cooking they are not as flakey and hold together better.
This recipe is better the second day and will keep to the third in the fridge.
1 lb
purple potatoes (fingerling are best)
spray grapeseed oil
1/4 tsp
salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 Tbsp
olive oil
4 tsp
balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp
fresh dill
2 small
ribs celery with leaves
Place a large skillet in the oven and preheat to 325°F.
When the oven is hot spray the pan lightly with oil. Add the potatoes and place the pan in the oven. Roast for about 20 - 25 minutes until the potatoes are just tender.
Remove and let cool.
Slice the potatoes about 1/2 inch thick. If using larger potatoes cut in half lengthwise first and then cut into half moon slices.
Place the sliced potatoes in a bowl with the salt, pepper, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, dill and diced celery.
Fold together and chill.
