    Recipe Introduction


    This is a low fat version of potato salad. It's a nice change from the mayonaise salads of summer.

    List of Ingredients





    1 1/2 pounds red potatoes, organic if possible
    1/4 cup Dijon or Dusseldorf mustard
    1/4 cup dry white vermouth
    1/4 cup white wine vinegar
    2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
    1 yellow onion
    2 stalks celery
    2 tsp capers
    1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
    Chopped fresh dill to taste
    1/2 lb. steamed green beans, cut in 1-inch pieces (optional)

    Recipe




    1. Boil potatoes in their skins, covered, just until they can be easily pierced with a sharp knife.

    2. Meanwhile, prepare dressing in a jar, combining mustard, vermouth, vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste; shake well.

    3. Drain potatoes, let cool enough to handle, then peel and cut into thick slices. Place in a large bowl.

    4. Pour dressing over the potatoes while they are warm, tossing well.

    5. Add chopped onion, sliced celery, capers, finely chopped parsley, dill and, if you like, other chopped vegetables (red bell pepper, radish).

    6. Correct seasoning. Chill until served.

    7. If desired, you can toss in lightly cooked fresh green beans as a good last-minute addition.
