    List of Ingredients




    CAESAR POTATO SALAD



    Makes: 6 servings

    2 1/2 pounds (about 8 red thin-skinned
    potatoes, scrubbed
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1 teaspoon Worcestershire
    2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
    3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
    4 anchovy fillets, minced, plus about 5 whole
    fillets for garnish (about 1 ounce total)
    1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
    1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
    Salt and pepper

    Recipe



    In a 5- to 6-quart pan, bring 3 quarts water to a boil. Add
    potatoes, cover, and cook over medium heat until potatoes are just
    tender when pierced, 30 to 40 minutes.

    Remove all but one potato from cooking water; immerse in cold water.
    When cool, cut potatoes into 1/2-inch-wide slices. Continue to cook
    remaining potato over medium heat until very soft when pierced, and
    skin has begun to peel away, 5 to 10 minutes.

    Remove potato and cut in half; slice 1 half and add to the other
    sliced potatoes. Immerse remaining half in cold water until cool to
    touch, about 3 minutes; peel, cut in half again, and place in a
    blender with 1/2 cup of the cooking water. Whirl until smooth. Place
    in a small bowl; immerse bowl just to the rim in cold water until
    potato puree is cool.

    In a medium bowl, combine minced garlic, Worcestershire, Dijon
    mustard, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and minced anchovies. Mix in
    2/3 cup of the cooled potato puree; pour over sliced potatoes.
    (Discard remaining puree or reserve for another use.) Add grated
    parmesan cheese; gently mix to coat potatoes. Garnish with minced
    parsley and whole anchovy fillets. Add salt and pepper to taste.
    Serve, or if making ahead, chill up to 1 day.
