: Sounds good too. Potato salad doesn't have to be predominantly potato

: What is your mustard vinaigrette? Do you heat it first? I know a lot of
: people who heat vinegar based dressings before putting on salad.
Essentially, it is cider or wine or malt vinegar or a misture and good
olive oil with apulverized garlic clove or so, salt and pepper and a god
dollop of a good deli mustart to taste. I put this onto te choppedred
onions and hot potatoes just draind and chunked so I don't need to heat
the vinegarlet it get absorbed and then refigerated it, if you want
overnight. Add the breen vegetable just befor serving and mix lightly,
but well. I generally just eyeball it rather than measure. If you like
you can put some lemon juice in there too but not only lemon juice.
