Ingredients

• salt to taste
• 1 bay leaf
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• ¼ cup finely chopped shallots
• ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
• 2 pounds baby Yukon Gold potatoes, unpeeled

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place the potatoes in a large saucepan and cover by 1 inch with water. Season with salt. Add bay leaf and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until potatoes can be easily pierced with a knife, 12 to 15 minutes. Do not overcook.

Step 2

Meanwhile, whisk olive oil, white wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a small bowl together until emulsified.

Step 3

Drain cooked potatoes in a colander and cool until just warm enough to handle. Cut the potatoes into 1/2-inch slices and transfer to a large bowl.

Step 4

Drizzle vinaigrette over potatoes, gently tossing to coat. Add shallots and parsley and toss lightly to combine.

Step 5

Set the potato salad aside for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm or at room temperature.
