Ingredients

• 2 pounds Baby potatoes
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Parsley (fresh, chopped)
• 0.25 cup Dill (fresh, chopped)
• 0.25 cup Chives (fresh, chopped)
• 3 tablespoons Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Whole-grain mustard
• 1 clove Garlic (minced)
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)

Directions

Step 1

Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and cut any larger ones in half to ensure even cooking.

Step 2

Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover them with cold water. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to the water.

Step 3

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

Step 4

While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the herb vinaigrette. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, whole-grain mustard, minced garlic, and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.

Step 5

Chop the parsley, dill, and chives finely and set aside.

Step 6

Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them well and allow them to cool slightly for about 5-10 minutes.

Step 7

Transfer the warm potatoes to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the herb vinaigrette over the potatoes and toss gently to coat them evenly.

Step 8

Sprinkle the chopped parsley, dill, and chives over the potatoes and toss again to combine.

Step 9

Taste the potato salad and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.

Step 10

Serve the potato salad warm, at room temperature, or chilled. It can be made a few hours ahead and stored in the refrigerator.
