Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5lbs (680g) small potatoes (gold, red-skinned or a mix)
- 1 tbsp salt
- 2 tbsp (30ml) Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 1 tbsp (15ml) red wine vinegar
- 1 tbsp Dijon Mustard
- 1 tbsp Grainy Mustard
- 1 tsp salt
- ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 4 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
- 1 shallot, peeled and diced
- 5–6 cornichons (or dill pickles), diced
- 1 tbsp (15ml) cornichon juice
Instructions
- Slice the small potatoes in half, or in quarters if larger. Place them in a large pot and cover by 1 inch with water. Add 1 tbsp of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium and simmer for about 15 minutes until tender. Drain and rinse under cold water.
- In a large bowl, combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt, and pepper. Whisk to blend. Add mustards, 3 tbsp dill, shallots, cornichons, and cornichon juice. Toss to combine.
- Add potatoes to the vinaigrette. Toss gently to coat evenly. Adjust seasoning if needed.
- Serve warm or chilled, garnished with remaining dill.
Notes
- Best potatoes: small gold or red-skinned varieties.
- No need to peel the potatoes.
- Tossing warm potatoes helps absorb flavors better.
- Can be made ahead and refrigerated.
