Greek Potato Salad
“This salad is a very casual side dish that is excellent on its own with the tangy dressing and beautiful almost “waxy” smooth texture of Yukon Gold potatoes. It can also be a starting point to your own creativity and can be used as a base for more add-ins of bacon, hardboiled egg, capers, chopped bell peppers, frozen peas, roasted peppers, olives, fresh herbs, etc…”
Ingredients:
2 lbs Yukon Gold Potatoes
1 Sweet Onion, rough chop (1/4-1/2 inch wide pieces)
¼ cup Flatleaf Italian Parsley (roughly chopped)
¼ cup Island Olive Oil Barrel Aged Red Wine Vinegar
1/2- 3/4 cup Island Olive Oil EVOO
Seasoned Salt* & Fresh Cracked Pepper to taste
Set a large pot of water on stove on high to boil. Once the water is ready, turn down to medium-high, add whole potatoes and cook till they are fork tender, about 20-25 min. Once the potatoes are cooked, peel easily under cool running water. Cut potatoes into big chunks, set aside in large bowl. Add in the onion and parsley to potatoes.
Drizzle Island Olive Oil EVOO, Island Olive Oil Barrel Aged Red Wine Vinegar over warm potato mixture and toss to coat. (depending on the heat and moisture content the mixture may require more or less oil and vinegar, make sure to taste as you go- you can always add more, but you can’t take it away once it’s in there!) Season with seasoned salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste. Can be served warm, at room temperature, or chilled.
