Ingredients

• 2 lbs Yukon Gold potatoes
• 2 tsp Salt
• 0.25 cup Fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.25 cup Fresh dill, chopped
• 3 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 2 tbsp Red wine vinegar
• 2 tsp Dijon mustard
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 1 clove Garlic, minced

Directions

Step 1

Wash and scrub 2 lbs of Yukon Gold potatoes. Cut them into bite-sized pieces, leaving the skin on for added texture and nutrients.

Step 2

Place the potato pieces in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add 2 tsp of salt to the water.

Step 3

Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook the potatoes for 15-20 minutes or until they are fork-tender.

Step 4

While the potatoes cook, prepare the dressing by whisking together 0.25 cup of olive oil, 2 tbsp of red wine vinegar, 2 tsp of Dijon mustard, 1 minced garlic clove, and 0.5 tsp of black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.

Step 5

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them in a colander and allow them to cool slightly for about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Transfer the warm potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Add the prepared dressing and gently toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.

Step 7

Add 0.25 cup of chopped parsley, 0.25 cup of chopped dill, and 3 thinly sliced green onions to the bowl. Toss again to incorporate the herbs and distribute evenly.

Step 8

Taste the salad and adjust with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 9

Serve the potato salad warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Garnish with extra fresh herbs if desired.
