Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs (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
- 1/4 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
Prepare the Potatoes:
- Slice the small potatoes in half, or in quarters if larger.
- Place them in a large pot and cover with water by about 1 inch.
- Add 1 tbsp of salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 15 minutes until you can easily poke a knife into the potatoes.
- Drain immediately into a colander/strainer and rinse under cold water. The potatoes should have cooled slightly but still be warm to the touch.
Make the Vinaigrette:
- In a large bowl, combine the extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, 1 tsp of salt, and 1/4 tsp of freshly ground black pepper.
- Whisk vigorously with a fork to blend and emulsify.
- Add Dijon mustard, grainy mustard, 3 tablespoons of the freshly chopped dill, diced shallots, diced cornichons, and cornichon juice. Toss to combine.
Combine and Serve:
- Add the potatoes to the bowl with the vinaigrette. Toss gently to coat the potatoes evenly. Adjust seasoning to taste if needed.
- Serve warm or chilled. For serving, sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of freshly chopped dill.
