Wine Country Potato Salad Patatosalata Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium salad bowl, combine the potatoes, onions, scallions, olives, dill, and oregano.
• In a small bowl whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
• Pour over the salad and mix well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In a pot with a steamer insert, steam the potatoes until tender, about 15 minutes. (The potatoes can also be cooked in boiling salted water for the same amount of time.) Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature.
• In a pot of boiling water, blanch the leeks for 30 seconds, or until tender. Rinse in cold water and drain. Set aside.
• Cut the roasted peppers in 1/2 crosswise and then cut them into 1/2-inch slices.
• Cut each potato into 8 pieces. In a medium bowl, mix the potatoes, leeks, peppers, thyme, and tarragon. In a separate bowl, stir together the Champagne vinaigrette with the mustard. Drizzle the vinaigrette on the potato salad and toss gently until the vinaigrette coats the salad evenly. Season with the salt and pepper and toss again.
• In a small bowl, whisk the vinegar and salt together until the salt dissolves. Slowly whisk in the oil until the dressing is well blended. Season with pepper, to taste.

Steps:

• Place the potatoes and 2 tablespoons of salt in a large pot of water. Bring the water to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, until the potatoes are barely tender when pierced with a knife. Drain the potatoes in a colander, then place the colander with the potatoes over the empty pot and cover with a clean, dry kitchen towel. Allow the potatoes to steam for 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, buttermilk, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, dill, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Set aside.
• When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, cut them in quarters or in half, depending on their size. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl. While the potatoes are still warm, pour enough dressing over them to moisten. Add the celery and red onion, 2 teaspoons of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Toss well, cover, and refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to blend. Serve cold or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees.
• Rinse potatoes and place them in a large saucepan with cold water to cover. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes or longer, depending on the size. Do not overcook.
• Drain potatoes, and when they are cool enough to handle, peel them and cut them into 1/4-inch slices. Place them in a heat-proof mixing bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, wine and oil. Toss while warm. Cover bowl with foil. Place it in oven briefly to warm through. Turn into a serving dish and serve while warm.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine olive oil, wine vinegar, oregano, parsley, and onion. Mix and set aside.
• Add potatoes to a large pot of boiling, lightly salted water. Boil for about 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Drain water and let cool.
• When cooled, peel and dice. Place in a large bowl, add dressing and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss to coat, cover bowl and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
