    Recipe Introduction



    Recipe Summary
    Prep Time: 20 minutesCook Time: 30 minutes
    Yield: 4 to 6 servings

    List of Ingredients









    1 pound small white boiling potatoes
    1 pound small red boiling potatoes
    2 tablespoons good dry white wine
    2 tablespoons chicken stock
    3 tablespoons Champagne vinegar
    1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
    2 teaspoons kosher salt
    3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    10 tablespoons good olive oil
    1/4 cup minced scallions (white and green parts)
    2 tablespoons minced fresh dill
    2 tablespoons minced flat-leaf parsley
    2 tablespoons julienned fresh basil leaves

    Recipe



    Drop the white and red potatoes into a large pot of boiling salted water
    and cook for 20 to 30 minutes, until they are just cooked through. Drain
    in a colander and place a towel over the potatoes to allow them to steam
    for 10 more minutes. As soon as you can handle them, cut in 1/2 (quarters
    if the potatoes are larger) and place in a medium bowl. Toss gently with
    the wine and chicken stock. Allow the liquids to soak into the warm
    potatoes before proceeding.
    Combine the vinegar, mustard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper
    and slowly whisk in the olive oil to make an emulsion. Add the vinaigrette
    to the potatoes. Add the scallions, dill, parsley, basil, 1 1/2 teaspoons
    salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and toss. Serve warm or at room temperature.
