ingredients

  • 2 lbs (8-10 medium) white and yellow boiling potatoes
  • 4 Tb dry white wine
  • 2 Tb chicken stock
  • 2 Tb white wine vinegar
  • 1 Tb lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 6 Tb olive oil
  • pepper
  • 2 Tb minced shallots or green onion
  • 3 Tb chopped mixed fresh herbs

directions

  • 1

    Scrub potatoes. Drop them into boiling salted water to cover, and boil until the potatoes are just tender when pierced with a small knife. Drain. As soon as they are cool enough to handle, peel, if desired, and cut them into slices about 1/8 inch thick. Place them into a mixing bowl.

  • 2

    Pour wine and stock over the warm potato slices and toss very gently. Set aside for a few minutes until the potatoes have absorbed the liquid.

  • 3

    Beat the vinegar, mustard, lemon juice, and salt in a small bowl until the salt has dissolved. Then beat the oil in as it is added in a slow steady stream. Season to taste, and stir in the shallots. Pour the dressing over the potatoes, and toss gently to blend. Garnish with fresh chopped herbs.

  • 4

    Serve while still warm or at room temperature.
