    After potatoes are cool, cut into quarters of helves and place the cut potatoes in a large bowl and pour enough dressing over them to moisten...as the salad sits, you may need to add more dressing. Add the onion, tarragon and parsley and salt and pepper to taste. Toss well, cover and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Serve cold or at room temperature.

notes

This is a recipe from Ina Garten and I really like the change from my usual potato salads that have mayonnaise.
