Baby potato salad with smoky mustard
serves 6 to 8
1 lb baby red potatoes
1 lb blue potatoes
1 lb baby Yukon potatoes
1 tbsp kosher salt
1⁄3 cup white wine vinegar
1⁄4 cup olive oil
Kosher salt and pepper to taste
1⁄2 cup sour cream
1 tbsp grainy mustard
3 tbsp smoky mustard (Kozlik's is a popular Canadian brand)
1 cup sliced celery
3 green onions, thinly sliced white and green parts
2 tbsp chopped chives
Leaving the skin on potatoes, cut them all in half or into one-and-a-half-inch cubes. Place cut potatoes in a large pot, add kosher salt and fill pot with enough cold water to cover potatoes by two inches. Bring water to a boil, reduce heat slightly and cook, uncovered, or 10 minutes, or until potatoes are easily pierced with a knife.
Drain the potatoes in a colander and let them steam dry for 2 or 3 minutes. While the potatoes are still hot, place them in a large bowl and drizzle with the white wine vinegar and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow mixture to cool for half an hour, stirring gently every now and again to evenly coat the potatoes.
Gently stir sour cream and mustards into potato mixture, tossing to thoroughly coat. Add in the celery and green onions; stir to coat. Garnish with the chopped chives.
Refrigerate and serve cold.
