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!

The Instant Pot Meals Worth Actually Making (And the Trick That Makes Them Work)

Pressure cooking is one of the better methods for retaining nutrients in food — the shorter cook time means less exposure to heat, which preserves more vitamins and minerals than long stovetop or oven methods. It’s also one of the most efficient ways to cook dried beans from scratch, which are significantly lower in sodium than canned and higher in fiber per serving. If you haven’t tried cooking dried chickpeas or black beans in the Instant Pot, it’s worth the experiment — no soaking required and done in about 40 minutes.

The Cook Who Changed Everything: Julia Child and the Democratization of French Cooking

Julia Child’s approach to cooking — using real butter, real cream, real ingredients in appropriate quantities rather than the low-fat substitutes that became fashionable in the decades after her peak influence — has been increasingly vindicated by nutritional research that has revised the understanding of dietary fat developed in the 1970s and 1980s. The full-fat dairy and the moderate use of butter and olive oil that characterize classical French cooking, which Child championed, align closely with the Mediterranean dietary pattern now recognized as one of the most health-supportive available. Child herself, who ate with genuine pleasure and without dietary anxiety throughout her life, lived to ninety-one — a biographical data point that she would have appreciated being noted.
