Herb-Infused Potato Salad with Zesty Dijon Dressing

Ingredients

- 2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest (approximately 1 lemon)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 4 green onions, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh mint, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. Prepare the Potatoes:
Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt to the water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Cook Time: PT12M (12 minutes)
Boil until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork.

2. Make the Dressing:
While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the dressing. In a large bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, lemon zest, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and olive oil until well combined. Season with salt and black pepper.

3. Drain and Cool Potatoes:
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain them thoroughly. Let them cool for about 5 minutes to prevent the herbs from wilting when mixed.

4. Combine Ingredients:
Add the slightly cooled potatoes to the bowl with the dressing. Gently toss to coat the potatoes evenly with the dressing.

5. Add the Herbs and Green Onions:
Add the chopped green onions, parsley, mint, and dill to the bowl. Gently fold the herbs into the potato mixture until evenly distributed.

6. Final Adjustments:
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper to suit your preference.

7. Serve:
Transfer the potato salad to a serving platter or bowl. Garnish with a few sprigs of dill or parsley for an elegant presentation.
