Herbed Potato Salad

Healthy Fact of the Day

This herbed potato salad uses olive oil and apple cider vinegar in the dressing, making it a lighter and healthier alternative to traditional mayonnaise-based potato salads. The fresh herbs add a pop of color and a burst of flavor, as well as some extra vitamins and antioxidants.

Ingredients

 

  • 2 lbs baby potatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

 

Instructions

  1. Place the halved baby potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

  2. Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly.

  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and honey to create the dressing.

  4. Add the cooled potatoes, dill, parsley, and green onions to the bowl with the dressing. Toss gently to coat the potatoes evenly.

  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  6. Chill the potato salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  7. Before serving, give the potato salad a final toss and adjust the seasoning if needed.

Elevate your next picnic or barbecue with this vibrant and herbaceous potato salad that’ll have your guests tossing aside the idea of a boring side dish and digging into a bowl of pure potato perfection!

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Key West Grilled Chicken

Lime juice in the marinade provides vitamin C and acts as a natural tenderizer through its citric acid content, producing a juicier, more tender finished chicken without any added fat. Honey is bold enough in flavor that a small amount delivers meaningful caramelization and sweetness on the grill, keeping the overall sugar content of the marinade moderate.

The Cook’s Library: Books That Changed How We Think About Food

Research on food literacy — the understanding of where food comes from, how it is produced, and what its nutritional and ecological implications are — consistently finds that higher food literacy is associated with better dietary quality, greater consumption of whole and minimally processed foods, and stronger motivation for sustainable food choices. Reading about food — not just recipe books but books about food culture, food systems, and food history — is one of the most effective ways to develop food literacy. The investment of time in the cook’s library produces measurable improvements in the quality of food choices that purely nutritional education does not achieve.
